Note 2
SATA hardware RAID is supported on Linux systems that have support for the Intel RSTe technology. The
Linux kernel, with built-in software RAID, provides excellent functionality and performance. It is a good
alternative to hardware-based RAID. Please visit
http://www.hp.com/support/linux_hardware_matrix
for
RAID capabilities with Linux.
All drives must be identical in type and capacity.
RAID arrays greater than 2 TB are fully supported.
NOTE 1
: Requires hard drives with identical speed, capacity, and interface. Specific user-configured hardware
