I need a hardware SAS Raid controller for a Dell R510 server that is compatible with ESXi 5. I would like to use raid 5. The server has a 8 drive back plane in it and I would like the ability to use standard SATA drives if possible.
Unless it's not already evident I don't know a whole lot about SAS. I assume that the back plane that I have in the server will work with another card other than what dell has to offer, is that correct?
Any suggestions on a card?
