Hi everyone,
I bought a used ibm eserver that came with 2 hot swappable 18 gig hard drives.
I decided to upgrade it and bought there raid 5 pci module and got 3 135 gb hard drives
I plan to install ubuntu on it . My questions are:
- do i have to setup Raid 5 and install 3 hard drives before I should install ubuntu
-what makes a drive hot swappable...the drive or the tray it is in
- is there a special screw driver that is used to open the screws off the SCSI trays...coudnt get 2 out
