The original inquiry was about the RHEL drivers, but the Dell support person confirms that the CARD doesn't support SATA drives.

Yes I will do this tonight when I get home from work

The reply from the dell tech is what I am mainly concerned about, considering the people wanting to use legacy Raptor drives in RAID on the 6/i:

Quick question about the memory, will it except a 1gb ram module and only read 512mb? Or will it not even read the 1Gb module at all?

Pretty sure it only takes a max of 512. The 1GB stick will be unrecognized.

Does this really mean that the DIMM is gone bad or could it be temporary? The DIMM can take a week to get here. My question: Should I continue?

Also, how should I test the old and the new DIMM?
does anybody know how would I go about testing this RAM? does memtest detect ram on the raid card?

I know memtest will not detect ram on the raid card. You could test the ram if you had an ECC motherboard, but if you put the ECC ram in a non ECC board that supports it, the parity bits wouldnt be tested, which would defeat the purpose of testing.

Considering the cheapness of a new DIMM i would just get a new one. I wouldn't continue if I were you, as a bad ECC most likely will result in corrupt data. If you encounter the same error, then you know its something wrong with the card. I am betting its something wrong with the ECC module on your RAM though.

Isnt there another place you could pick up a stick locally?

but the question is how do I know the new module is good? does the perc bios do check on the memory? can it be asked to do more detailed test?

I don't have an ECC mobo.

Slightly more expensive - and maybe a bit better built (?) is the SuperMicro CSE-M14T (also available in black...)

http://www.supermicro.com/products/a...ck/CSE-M14.cfm

it has one SAS connector in the back of it, so you just need a SAS to SAS cable to connect from the Perc5/i to the back of the rack. I've got 4 Core2 SSDs in mine...

I removed the fan from the back of the SuperMicro rack (its a 40mm screamer of a fan, and SSDs dont need hardly any cooling at all), and changed the jumper so the "fan broken" buzzer doesn't sound.
