Initially I had an M1015, but swapped it out for an H700 when the drives didn't work. (The seller thought the H700 would work with the drives).

Hello!
I just got my first server, an R710. I'm trying to set it up to pass my harddrives directly to any VM's I'll run.

I don't have experience at all with backplanes, SAS connection and basic server related hardware.. so I wonder if someone...

Hey all. I've been trolling around ebay looking for a deal on a cheap R710 and came across a deal on an older model McAfee WG5500 (specs: http://www.infomach.com.br/datasheet/ds_web_gateway_spec.pdf ).
I picked it up since the parts are easily worth what I paid, but I was wondering if it was...
