Description
Network Connectivity and Expansion Slots
The HPE Proliant DL380 G6 8SFF-2p Intel Xeon Quad-core 2.8GHz, 2x 750w Ps 2-way 2u Rack Server comes with the following network connectivity and expansion slots:
- Network Connectivity: The server comes with two embedded NC382i Dual Port Multifunction Gigabit Network Adapters with TCP/IP Offload Engine, including support for Accelerated iSCSI through an optional Licensing kit. It also has an optional FlexibleLOM (LAN-on-Motherboard) port for added network connectivity options.
- Expansion Slots: The server has three PCI-Express Gen 2 expansion slots as follows:
- One full-length, full-height x16 slot (PCIe 2.0)
- One low-profile x8 slot (PCIe 2.0)
- One low-profile x4 slot (PCIe 2.0)
Additionally, the server has two PCI-X slots (one 64-bit/133MHz, and one 64-bit/100MHz), which can be used with optional PCI-X riser cards.
RAID Support and Configuration Options
The HPE Proliant DL380 G6 8SFF-2p Intel Xeon Quad-core 2.8GHz server supports a variety of RAID configurations using the embedded Smart Array P410i RAID controller. The available RAID levels include:
- RAID 0 – This level provides striping across multiple disks without parity or mirroring, providing improved performance but no data redundancy.
- RAID 1 – This level provides mirroring across two disks, offering data redundancy but no performance benefits.
- RAID 5 – This level provides striping with distributed parity across multiple disks, offering both improved performance and data redundancy.
- RAID 6 – This level provides striping with dual distributed parity across multiple disks, offering improved performance and even greater data redundancy.
- RAID 10 – This level provides a combination of mirroring and striping, providing both improved performance and data redundancy.
To configure RAID on the HPE Proliant DL380 G6, you can use the Smart Array Configuration Utility (ACU) that is available during server boot-up. You can also use the HPE Smart Storage Administrator (SSA) tool to configure and manage the RAID controller after the operating system has been installed.
It’s important to note that the specific RAID configuration options available to you may depend on the number and type of hard drives installed in the server. It’s recommended to refer to the server documentation or consult with an expert before configuring RAID on the server to ensure the best performance and data protection for your specific needs.
