bunjicat Posted May 30, 2016 #1 Posted May 30, 2016 I am about to purchase a HPE DL20 Gen9 Base 1u server and I want to run xpenology on it. Does anyone see any compatibility issues with this server? I am NOT planning on using the on board raid (B140i) controller and will be running in Legacy BIOS Mode. http://www8.hp.com/h20195/v2/GetPDF.aspx/c04834960.pdf Also, currently running 2 WD 3TB reds on a xpeno Dell pc for testingin SHR config. Any issue with moving the drives from from one server to another? Thanks
berwhale Posted May 30, 2016 #2 Posted May 30, 2016 No issue moving the drives assuming that you buy the version of the server that takes two LFF (3.5") drives. I moved 4 3TB drives in an SHR array from a physical server to a virtualized one (Xpenology running on vSphere 6.0) without issue. All data, users, permissions, apps, etc remained intact. Just make sure that you use the same version of DSM and Xpenology on both servers.
