Known issues and workarounds There are two known issues with ProLiant servers and Windows SBS 7. Windows SBS 7 does not install on the HP ProLiant BL465c G7 Server Blade configured with the Intel® 82801FR SATA RAID Controller. While installing the OS, the SATA hard drives connected to the Intel 82801FR SA TA RAID controller do not appear when selecting the drive for the OS. HP does not support the Intel 82801FR SATA RAID controller with the ProLiant BL465c G7 Server Blade at this time. Windows SBS 7 requires more than120 GB in storage capacity to install without error or warnings. If the storage capacity is less than 80 GB, the message "Insufficient disk space" displays and the installation fails. If the storage capacity is between 80 GB and 120 GB, a warning message declaring "Insufficient disk space" displays; however, the installation continues. 9
