We are currently speccing up a 2950 rack server and want to have four disks configured as two mirrored arrays.
Dell claim that this is only supported by SAS disks not by Sata disks.
The problem is that SAS costs a whole heap more.
The controller is a SAS/Sata capable card, so I don't understand this limitation.
Is there anything to stop me specing 2 disks (one mirror) from dell and then adding in sata disks myself later ?
