My server has 2 RAID 6 arrays, both RAID 6, 7 x 6tb Western Digital 6tb WD60EFRX Red SAN drives array & 16 4tb Western Digital WD4001FAEX Black Caviar Enterprise array.
I use an@ Intel S2600CP Motherboard with 2 x E5-2670 Oct Core CPUs & 64gig ECC RAM, running on Windows Server 2016. One of the 6tb drives requires replacement & I am inclined to replace the array with 6 tb drives with Western Digital WD121KRYZ Gold Helioseal 12 Terabyte drives.
Has anyone tried these 12tb drives or other 10tb 12tb or 14tb drives with this controller or Motherboard built in RAID system, or any info that points to why or why not these drives will work here? I don't want to buy these drives just to waste time/effort if NOT capable?
Regards,
Viv.
