Hardware Compatibilty (not found in HCL)

Hey,

we would like to build our own Server with following componets and we don't found these components in the HCL V7.

2x Intel Gigabit ET Quad Port Server Adapter
and Raid1 on Supermicro X8SIL-F onboard Controller
Will it work?

ATM we use a provisiorium (core i3, single Sata HDD as IDE, 4GB RAM, 7 Realtek NICs)

any raid controller built into a motherboard is not going to work. Get a real hardware card by 3ware or areca. Even adaptec has some fakeraid boards(similar to bios raid) that aren't going to work.

Make sure whatever RAID card you use is in the HCL... the problem is, right now the HCL page is missing on the Astaro Support forum, I suppose for updates. Check with your reseller, they should be able to get you a list from Astaro Support.

IIRC any 3ware or areca card is going to work with 8.202

The 82574L Intel NICs are known to work in 7.5 and up, although I have an auto-negotiation problem with mine and my Netgear switch, so I set mine manually to 1000/Full.

Ok, my Reseller don't have a HCL-List.

Which Sataraidcontroller will work with Satadrives?
I look always for LSI Controllers, is the LSI 1068 supportet in V8.202?
Sata / Raid1

greets

Edit: Sry the LSI need an PCI-X Port, I talk back to my Reseller, maybe we found a other configuration.

Any of the 9k series 3ware should work as they are in the kernel
