Not sure if it's better here or in Servers, but has anyone recently tried using non-HP firmware disks in Gen8 servers? I'd specifically be trying to juggle a p408i controller into a Gen8 server (so I can have mixed mode) and then using the existing 3TB disks I have for storage. I presently have none of it to test (prospective purchase).
The seller can also sell real HP disks, but since I already have 30TB of disk available, it seems like a real waste to buy more just to get an HP logo.
