Configuring HP Smart Array P420i I/O Controller(HP DL380p Gen8) for VSAN

Well, I try to install VSAN on HP DL380p Gen8 Server.

But. When I am trying to create 3 RAID 0 logical drives on the server. The user has successfully created 2 logical drives, however when user tried to create the third logical drive, he is not getting the Create Array option.

I dont think with two logical drives I can install VSAN on the Server.

Is there any other configuration I need to set?

I'm no HP hardware expert but I think you need a cache module if in Raid-0 mode to create more than 2 logical drives
