I bought 9 of theses. Now I have a problem.
I tried to install them in a DL380 G7 (P410) and I the only thing I got is a solid amber light.
I didn't do my homework, it seems that the G7 only supports PCIe Gen2 and those are Gen3.
Currently, I have two G7 with Hyper-v in a cluster.
Starwind vSAN replicating over a Mellanox 10GB adapter.
My plan was to add more storage to both G7, but the plan failed miserably.
What would you suggest?
1 - Resell them on ebay
2- Buy "insert something that will make them work in a G7" $
3- Buy two servers that supports those disks.
If possible, I would like to keep my 144GB of DDR3 RAM (18 RAM slots per server)
