The controller detects an Error-Correcting Code (ECC) error while performing its cache checking routine during initialization.

The controller discards the cache rather than sending it to the disk subsystem because the data integrity cannot be guaranteed.

Missing Disks In Virtual Disk Error Message

Error Message:

The following virtual disks have missing disks: (x). If you

 

proceed (or load the configuration utility), these virtual

 

disks will be marked OFFLINE and will be inaccessible. Please

 

check your cables and ensure all disks are present. Press any

 

key to continue, or 'C' to load the configuration utility.

Probable Cause:

The message indicates that some configured disks were removed. If the disks were not

 

removed, they are no longer accessible. The SAS cables for your system might be improperly

 

connected.

Dell H710P, H310, H810 Missing Disks In Virtual Disk Error Message, Previous Configuration Of Disks Removed Error Message

H310, H710, H710P, H810 specifications

Dell offers a range of storage controller technologies, notably the H810, H710, H710P, and H310, which cater to different enterprise needs. These controllers are designed to support various storage configurations, enhancing overall system performance and reliability.

The Dell H810 is a high-performance PCIe 3.0 RAID controller that supports up to eight internal drives and is particularly suited for demanding workloads. It features advanced RAID levels including RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60, providing flexibility for various data protection strategies. The H810 also supports up to 32TB of storage capacity, making it suitable for environments that require substantial data management capabilities.

The H710 is another powerful RAID controller, widely recognized for its balance of performance and cost-efficiency. It features 1GB of cache memory, which aids in accelerating read and write operations. The H710 supports the same RAID levels as the H810 and allows for up to 512MB of non-volatile memory. This ensures data integrity even in the event of a power failure, making it reliable for critical applications.

The H710P is an enhanced version of the H710, with a significant upgrade in its cache capabilities. It offers 2GB of battery-backed cache memory, further enhancing data processing speeds and improving responsiveness. The H710P is ideal for intensive workloads and virtualization, where rapid access to data is essential. This controller also includes features such as RAID storage pooling, intelligent data tiering, and support for multiple virtual disks.

Finally, the H310 is a cost-effective option for small to medium-sized businesses or those with less demanding storage requirements. It offers similar RAID support as the higher-end controllers but operates with a simpler architecture. The H310 features 512MB of cache, providing sufficient performance for regular workloads without the additional complexities of more advanced controllers.

In summary, Dell's H810, H710, H710P, and H310 storage controllers each serve distinct purposes, providing various features, technologies, and performance characteristics tailored to different business needs. From high-capacity storage solutions to user-friendly setups, Dell’s offerings ensure that organizations can efficiently manage their data storage requirements.
