    Quick question about remote hands request

    I have a half rack in Dallas and would like to find a local tech that can do some remote hands work on demand as/when needed.

    I'm planning on setting up a RAID5 array with 4xIntel 520 480GB SSDs and a MegaRAID SAS 9271-8iCC card. FastPath will be enabled too. What I'm not able to clearly understand from the online documentation of the LSI card is if I can add more drives to the RAID5 array in the future (without...
