I am trying to install CentOS5 on a new HP DL360e G8 with B120i disk controller. It appears that a proprietary HP driver is needed for it.
I found a useful description at http://www.linuxhelp.in/2013/08/Installing-centos-on-HP-Proliant-DL360e-Gen8...
I have a pair of hard drives to use as a RAID1 mirror.
My question to people who may have been this way already is: is it worth my fiddling around with that procedure to get the RAID controller working, performance-wise, or might I just as well use AHCI mode with kernel mdraid?
I normally use Supermicro with AHCI and mdraid quite happily, but the customer wanted HP :(
Cheers Tony
