A question about RAID

Hi,

I'm trying to understand the following situation:

We created this setup of disks in our Dell R710 Server:

VD 0 = only one SSD 1TB
VD 1 = RAID 10 (4 x SAS 600GB)
VD 2 = RAID 1 (2 x SAS 600GB)

#

When I check proxmox about Disk details it shows me 7 disks instead of 3 virtual disks made by RAID:

Is there any misconfig in my scenario? Or am I viewing information in the wrong menu?

Thanks!

I'd check the output of `dmesg` after a system boot (look for messages regarding scsi, sd[a-g], ATA, disk) - this should give you an indication how the disks are recognized from within the system.
AFAIR there was the megacli utility, with which you can view the raid-controller settings from within PVE.

I hope this helps!
