SATA hardware RAID is not supported on Linux systems. The Linux kernel, with built-in software RAID, provides excellent functionality and performance. It is a good alternative to hardware-based RAID. Please visit http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c00060684/c00060684.pdf for RAID capabilities with Linux.

All drives must be identical in type and capacity All RAID arrays must be less than 2 TB

NOTE 1: Requires identical hard drives (speeds, capacity, interface. Specific user-configured hardware SAS RAID configurations are supported on this Linux system. Please visit: http://www.hp.com/support/linux_hardware_matrix for details.
