<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi Muhammad,<br>
<br>
I have currently the following in production:<br>
<br>
(Proxmox VMs on ceph storage, RAID only for boot/root/swap
partition)<br>
- PERC H200A - no battery <br>
- IBM ServeRAID 8k (Adaptec) 256MB BBC<br>
- PERC H730 1GB NV<br>
- PERC H710 512MB NV<br>
<br>
(RAID for VMs and system)<br>
- PERC H710 512MB NV<br>
<br>
Try to avoid PERC H310, I had reliability issues with drivers in
2.6.32/3.10 kernels (it would work/not work randomly on each
reboot)<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>
Eneko<br>

With proper hardware raid, your raid should be transparent
to the OS.<br>
<br>
We have been using proxmox with proper hardware raid for
years.<br>
