Hard Drive Migration Between Controllers Previous generations of HP NetRAID adapters-NetRAID, NetRAID-1, NetRAID-3Si, NetRAID-1Si, integrated HP NetRAID (LH 3/LH 4), and integrated HP NetRAID (LH 3000/LH 6000/LT 6000r)-supported a maximum of eight logical drives. The HP NetRAID-1M and 2M can support up to 40 logical drives. This enhancement affects the ability to keep the RAID configuration intact when moving the hard disks from the previous generation of adapters to the HP NetRAID-1M or 2M. Forward Migration Forward migration of the hard drives from the previous generation to the new generation of adapters is supported. NOTE HP NetRAID-1M or 2M adapter will support RAID 3 and 30 configurations when they are migrated from an older controller. You cannot, however, configure new RAID 3 or 30 configurations on an HP NetRAID 1M or 2M adapter. 104

Hard Drive Migration Between Controllers
Previous generations of HP NetRAID adapters—NetRAID, NetRAID-1, NetRAID-3Si,
NetRAID-1Si, integrated HP NetRAID (LH 3/LH 4), and integrated HP NetRAID
(LH 3000/LH 6000/LT 6000r)—supported a maximum of eight logical drives. The
HP
NetRAID-1M and 2M can support up to 40 logical drives. This enhancement affects the
ability to keep the RAID configuration intact when moving the hard disks from the
previous generation of adapters to the HP NetRAID-1M or 2M.
Forward Migration
Forward migration of the hard drives from the previous generation to the new
generation of adapters is supported.
NOTE
HP NetRAID-1M or 2M adapter will support RAID 3 and 30
configurations when they are migrated from an older
controller. You cannot, however, configure new RAID 3 or 30
configurations on an HP NetRAID 1M or 2M adapter.
