Thanks man! That was the controller i had pretty much decided on. I thought it would have the easiest install and the fact that it's red had certified is a definate plus. I had been told the the 4MX would be considerably faster because of the chipset it uses. I didn't know if this would be the...
Are you getting any error readouts on the LCD panel on the front of the server? I know my server will not power up if the fans are not running. Be sure you check the 4 hot swappable fans up front to be sure they are seated well and in operable condition. Also check all the interlocks. I had some...
Yes, my server is the last revision of the proliant 6500. It has 4 available (5 total) 64bit/66mhz pci slots. I should be able to utilize a 64bit 66mhz ultra3 raid controller with no problems. I have talked to people who run the SA5302 in this server with no issues. I was just curious if the IBM...
Hmm. sorry about the double post, it didn't seem to post the first one, gave me some sort of error, and then after i'd typed out and posted a second time the first one showed up. Hmmph. Anyhoo, some folks might not know, my 6500 is a later revision that supports 64bit 66mhz PCI and 100fsb as...
The IBM card is pretty much compatible with any system with it's intel chipset. The SA5302 is known to work in my server, wich by the way is a proliant 6500 not a 6400. I'm not sure where you got the model number 6400 while relating to my above post. Now, how exactly am i going to be losing...
I do not follow. The server is a PL6500 not 6400. The server has 4 64bit 66MHZ pci slots. Where am i losing that bandwidth? I could understand your point if i was using a server that had only 32bit 33mhz pci slots but that is not the case. I allready have 7 18.2GB 15K RPM U160 drives installed...
Hi,
I need to upgrade the raid controller in my proliant 6500 to support U160/ultra3 speeds. I currently have the choice between the SA5302 64MB ultra3 or IBM ServeRaid 4MX U160. The controller needs to run under Red Hat. The 5302 is certified for RH while the IBM is compatible (limited...
hello, my first post here. I've recently installed windows server 2003 enterprise on my server comp. i've allways used zone alarm pro for a highly configurable firewall. I've noticed with server2k3 zone alarm does not work properly, i've surfed the zone labs forums and many others have the same...
