Raid setup

[Mayank006]

Hi,

I have 3 dell servers and while purchasing I mentioned that we need RAID 1 on all 3 drives. While installing Proxmox it also asks for types of drive and raid levels.

Do I need to mention raid level here?

Depends on what raid you want to use. In case of HW raid you have to create those arrays before starting the PVE installer and then use etx4/LVM-Thin without raid on top of that. In case you want software raid you would need to disable all HW raid, set that disk controller into HBA/IT-mode and then create a software raid using ZFS in the PVE installer.
