    Hi All,

    This id for ESXi performanc testing

    Im using R630 server and like to use RAID for 2 NVME disks.

    We enabled R130 from server and it seems it is supporting for HDD/SSD not for NVME disks.

    How to do this task ? Is this possible ?

    Thanks,

    Raj

    Not possible with your old gear.

    The 15Gen. comes with PERC H755 which supports NVMe for RAID.  For everything else you need Software RAID or something like SDS.

    Seems like you already found the answer before asking the question, on the Dell forum.
