I'm considering upgrading a 2010 HP Proliant #DL380 !server with larger harddisks. Right now it has eight HP 146GB SAS disks.
The DL380G5 manual says the largest disks you can upgrade to is "HP 300GB 6G ENTerprise" or to "HP 500GB 3G SATA Midline".
An older (2008) version of the same manual even says 146GB disks are the largest you can use. (According to that I would be able to upgrade at all :-\)
Question is: Is the DL380G5 really that picky about harddisks or can I use the newer and cheaper "HP MSA 300GB 12G SAS 10K"?
What disks do other !server admins use to upgrade a DL380 G5?
- @mcscx@quitter.se repeated this.

… the DL3805G !server's RAID controller is the "Smart Array P400"

@kat a colleague already called HP but they weren't very helpful and only looked it up in the year-2008 manual and told us maximum is 146GB
