Hey,<br />
<br />
That particular hardware doesn't support RAID 10 arrays: <a href="http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/x/hardware/rack/x3250m2/specs.html" rel="ugc">http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/x/hardware/rack/x3250m2/specs.html</a>.<br />
<br />
You'd need to create either a RAID 0, RAID 1 or RAID 5 array using the hardware you have. Don't use RAID 0 if you are looking for redundancy.<br />

This is using IBM x3250, with 4xHDD 2.5". I am thinking of configure 2 pairs of HDD, both in RAID 0, and then mirroring both pairs. Can it be done?

Does IBM x3250 support RAID 10?

Servers are computing devices that are similar to desktop computers in that they have the same basic components, but are significantly different in size, configuration and purpose. Servers are usually accessed over a network, and many run unattended, without a computer monitor, input device, audio hardware or USB interfaces. Many servers do not have a graphical user interface (GUI), and are configured and managed remotely. Servers typically include hardware redundancy such as dual power supplies, RAID disk systems, and ECC memory, along with extensive pre-boot memory testing and verification. Critical components might be hot swappable, and to guard against overheating, servers might have more powerful fans or use water cooling.
