Hello to everyone on the forum, I have acquired a Dell poweredge R710 and would like to rebuild the TrueNAS Scale I have built on my desktop PC with the R710. The problem we know of at this time is that the R710 has a hardware raid. We anticipate problems importing the HDDs we are currently using on the desktop, one virtual drive at a time with a hardware raid. Am I correct in thinking that TrueNAS uses a software raid and therefore the use of a hardware raid is deprecated? What would be the best solution in this case? If anyone is running TrueNAS Scale (or core) on the same type of Dell rack server, please let me know how you are running it.
Current Configuration
TrueNAS-SCALE-22.12.0
Intel core i7 8700K
RAM 64GB(Crucial DDR4 16GB×4)
M/B ASUS ROG STRIX Z390-F GAMING
Crucial SATA SSD 500GB(boot-pool)
WD Red NVMe SSD 1TB
WD Red SATA HDD 8TB×4
NVMe SSDs are used for L2ARC and RAID Z1 with 4 8TB HDDs.
