You can use in in JBOD only. A good solution if you need real RAID is to use a supported Dell PERC SAS/SATA card such as the PERC 5i/6i.. this is an LSI-based card and you will get full health monitoring within ESXi. Make sure you get a RAID card with a battery backup, and stay away from the iR cards that exclude this feature.

Since the VMWare ESXi 4.0 is free, it's not cost you anything except time.<br /><br />EdwardAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8363089866456811088.post-17122787077090340372009-10-10T21:30:45.177-07:002009-10-10T21:30:45.177-07:00I have a Dell Precision 390 with me with 8 GB memo...I have a Dell Precision 390 with me with 8 GB memory and 4 x 320 GB HDD. I have configured RAID 5 using Intel Matrix Storage Software. <br /><br />Can I install VMWare ESXi 4.0 on the machine and will it detect my RAID 5 configuration? I have tried VMWare 3.5 but no luck. It sees all 4 HDDs seperately.<br /><br />Thanks,<br />Amith<br />amith.balakrishnan@gmail.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8363089866456811088.post-2694651269820845132009-09-03T23:46:36.273-07:002009-09-03T23:46:36.273-07:00I also have Dell Precision WorkStation 390 with sa...I also have Dell Precision WorkStation 390 with same hardware spec and planing to instal VMware Esxi but i afraid it will slow down but now you said so far so good then OK. thanks for your reply friend:)<br /><br />is there any body else have install VMware Esxi on dell precision and facing any problem on it?<br /><br />please reply friend........rajhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00226284251342810744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8363089866456811088.post-9439546885145875612009-09-03T20:20:23.682-07:002009-09-03T20:20:23.682-07:00So far I added another 3 OSs on this machine, 1 Wi...So far I added another 3 OSs on this machine, 1 Windows 2003 server, 1 Red Har Enterprise Server and 1 Linux Mint OS. So far so good. I didn't see the VMWare ESXi machine slow down the hardware spec. But I might add more RAM into this machine soon to make it better.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8363089866456811088.post-86318990451433961762009-09-03T05:41:32.639-07:002009-09-03T05:41:32.639-07:00how many Virtual Machine can install on this hardw...how many Virtual Machine can install on this hardware spec?<br /><br />is it the VMWare ESXi machine slow down with this hardware spec?<br /><br />please advice friend........rajhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00226284251342810744noreply@blogger.com
