Hi All,
We have a few of these R410 servers, all of which have H700 controllers, but one has a H200 and suffers with disk speed issues, so we want to upgrade to the H700.
The server has 4 SATA disks in it. Two are configured as Raid 1 with the OS on it.
The other two disks do not have hardware RAID enabled.
We have bought a H700, and tried to upgrade.
We installed the card, imported the foreign configuration, which all worked fine.
The issue is that Windows will not boot, and keeps giving BSOD.
A guess would be that the drivers for the H700 are not installed.
We can't have the two controllers in the server at the same time as there is only one PERC slot.
I also just saw one random post online which says you can't upgrade to a H700 if the disk is a boot drive, but that doesn't make much sense. Surely once the system and OS sees a disk it doesn't matter if it's bootable?
Anyway, any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
