[XPEnoboot Boot Image Will Not Work On MicroServer Gen8]

Hi Vodka2014 - I can't reply to your PM, guess I'm too new.

 

Anyway, to get the DSM working on my Gen8 Microserver I used this boot image:

and followed these guides:

and finally this:

I've not touched 5.1 yet, wanted to let the dust settle.

 

Good Luck!

 

 

Thanks for this i will try v5.0 / v4.3 when i get home and see if it will install. I do not want to use ESXi so lets see.

 

Thanks again

[DSM RAID or Controller RAID]

hi,

 

I'm about to set-up an XPEnology server running on a HP Microserver Gen8 and I wanted to know if I should configure the disks as a RAID set within the HP controller or leave the disks as a JBOD and use the DSM software to configure the disks?

 

Personally, I thought if I used the controller card it would provide better performance although I'm unsure if creating the RAID set within the controller card would be compatible with DSM and I don't have enough disks to test the theory (unfortunately)

 

thanks for any help in advance.
