Hi all,
I need to set up Raid-5 on my 170. I'm about to add a 7101 expansion unit
to expand past the 4x8G drives I currently have.

Can I set up Raid with my existing hardware, or do I need a "Raid
Controller"? And if so, what do I look for to see if I've got it and/or
what do I ask for when ordering the hardware?

I thought all that was part of the system?

Thanks for the help.

Your DASD is likely driven of the MFIOP base
and you will need a RAID 5 capable 274x Controllers
