NOTE:

All drives within a RAID array should be of the same type, capacity and rotation speed.

Up to two different kinds of drives can be mixed in one system

A large-capacity RAID array configuration requires long-time rebuilding when to recover from the
failure. Since redundancy becomes invalid during the system recovery, it is recommended to obtain a
RAID controller for RAID 6 (N8103-150/-151) to configure with RAID 6 or RAID 60, which supports
two hard drives failures, in order to improve the reliability.

For VMware ESXi 5.5 installation, to download the CIM provider (LSI SMI-S provider) is required.
