PowerEdge T410 internal SATA storage

Hi 

Due to significant 1to disc recycling, I am currently using a T410 build as follows:

- On the PERC 6i raid card, 2x1to system + 4x1to

- Internal SATA: 5x1to (software raid with the 4 perc6 disks under freenas)

I want to change these old recycled disks and use 6x4to. I understand that the perc6i does not support disks larger than 2to so 6x2to.

What about internal sata ports? Can I put 6x4to disks on the 6 sata ports? What's the maximum capacity supported ?

thank you

Vic.

Hi again,

As I explained before,i want to build a freenas server.
If the maximum capacity authorized on the internal sata ports of my T410 allows 6x4to, this would be perfect.
On the other hand, if that doesn't work, I wanted to use a PERC h700. Unfortunately I understand that Freenas had problems with the H700. Can someone confirm this for me?
The last solution would be to put a 6 port sata controller card in PCI-e ...

Which solution is best for you?
- 6x 4to on the onboard sata ports
- 6x 4to on a perc h700?
- 6x 4to on an additional sata card in Pci-e?

Thanks !
