Perc 6 RAID Controller for a PowerEdge 1800
I've got an old PowerEdge 1800 server currently running a CERC 1.5 Sata card and it is unbearably slow. I was wondering if I could put a T954J Dell PERC 6/i 256MB SAS/SATA RAID Controller in it. I have spent alot of time looking at compatibility lists, but cant find the 1800 listed.
The PowerEdge 1900 is compatible, so I thought maybe it would work in the 1800 as well. Not sure though.
Thanks

Thank you. I ended up buying a new server.
The 1800 and 1900 are far too different to assume that what will work in one will work in the other - different bus type, processor class, memory architecture, etc.
