Full Version: Adding SCSI hardware to a non-SCSI SM server
The Planet Forums > System Administration > Server Hardware
nForcer
Just curious if anyone asked the question. If ServerMatrix can install a SCSI controller and a single SCSI drive to an inherantly non-SCSI ServerMatrix server.

I'll submit a sales request if nobody knows, but I'm sure someone here has asked/wondered the same thing so thats why I'm asking.

Thanks to any who reply.

No experience with SCSI in SM server, but I honestly doubt they will go for it, no matter how much you pay. They'd rather you buy the P2800Sx series instead.

I seriously doubt they will do it for you. The last time I asked for SATA drives for my P2800 and was told it was not possible. But then again, they might make an exception for you. No harm asking sales though.

[quote=nForcer]Tell me, did you call them[/quote]

[quote=nForcer]No I'd rather not make a phone call, I'd rather post here because I don't know any better.[/quote]

[quote=nForcer]Plus, you can always call em.[/quote]

[quote=nForcer]probably best to call thier sales dept.[/quote]

[quote=nForcer]Give thier Sales Department a call.

Odds are someone here may be able to help you - but we don't speak on behalf of ThePlanet so we can't guarantee to be correct.[/quote]

[quote=nForcer]Something you can call or email Sales and find out. icon_cool.gif[/quote]

[quote=nForcer]call thier sales department[/quote]

[quote=nForcer]CALL them.

Otherwise, we don't care.[/quote]

[quote=nForcer]*shrugs*

Do what everyone is saying and call them.[/quote]

[quote=nForcer]Besides, pick up the phone and call em.  Its faster anyway! icon_razz.gif[/quote]

[quote=nForcer]call or email thier Sales Department and ask.  Never hurt to ask[/quote]

[quote=nForcer]Pick up the damn phone and call them!

I believe I have said enough.  :D[/quote]

[quote=nForcer]Why do I get the suspician people are affraid to call ServerMatrix?  They're NOT scary people.  They're just as much interested in your money (and keeping it) as any other business.  If you have a problem/question/etc...CALL THEM.[/quote]

[quote=nForcer]Well I was going to say, "give them a call", but realize I'd probably get flamed for posting an obvious answer.[/quote]

[quote=nForcer]Send them an email and/or call thier Sales Department.  They should be able to tell you what's possible.[/quote]

[quote=nForcer]Will require picking up the phone and calling them...
but I'll bet ServerMatrix Sales Department could tell ya![/quote]

[quote=nForcer]you did call them right?[/quote]

You stupid f**k, think about this for a minute. Why would I preach something I wouldn't do myself. Hmm, let me clue you in on my thinking.
If I called them, and got an answer, I'd be happy but NOBODY else would know the answer. And my whole point in posting here was incase someone else MIGHT be wondering what the outcome was. This was why I posted, so a possible answer could be given. Idiot.

You don't have to apologize, I know you were just trying to be cute, its just too bad you ended up being the butt of your own joke!

hey man, relax, just kidding around, don't be so sensitive. Didn't mean any offense, and if any was taken, I'm sorry. icon_smile.gif

Isn't that just as easily claimed for anyone else *you've* repeated this to?

I mean, good grief, you should have seen this coming a mile away. I know I sure did. If not S3, then someone else was bound to say it. I don't know why you're getting huffy about it.

LMAO! Ummm, no. You're the one who should be embarrassed right now. But I know you won't be so nevermind.

Well, I think the point has been made. Might want to lock this to prevent further heated debate.

Saw it coming? Oh yeah I saw it coming, so why do you think I specificly stated WHY I was posting. I know damn well I could have picked up the phone and asked. I also know that others' might be asking themselves the same question. If they were, they could search the forums and possibly find the answer. Otherwise they'd have to call Sales to do the same and ...my mistake for thinking a topic about the subject would save them the trouble.

Obviously none of you thought about it that far.

To summerize, you cannot add a SCSI subsystem to a non-SCSI SM server.

This topic can be locked now. Thankyou

I thought the same thing. The broad bandit got pwned.

It kinda reminds me of that story of the boy that called wolf... icon_razz.gif

You are so rude it is unbelievable. You come on here, preaching about this and that, Mr High-And-Mighty, about how right you are and you know everything and so on, and the minute that just a little bit of that is turned on you, you throw a temper tantrum, call a respected member of this community "a stupid f**k" and an "idiot" and behave as badly as my 6 year old daughter does when shen she gets told she can't have an ice-cream.

How old are you? 15? Because you sure behave like a spoilt little brat who can't take the heat. My respect for you is nil now because your respect for other people, not just in this thread, but in all the other threads you contaminate, is also nil. Grow up for goodness sake and start posting stuff people actually want to read!

Wow I turn away from the forums for 15 minutes and look what happens. If you're going to yell at each other please do it via PM.
