Hi all,

Due to the battery being dead on my 2741 RAID card in the old 170 system, I've ordered a replacement card, a model 2748.

The 2741 didn't allow me to use any disk but what was in the first slot, in addition to potentially being slow because of the dead battery. I would replace the battery on the card, but it's welded/soldered to it. I'd rather have a replacement card before attempting to de-solder & re-solder a new battery & holder to it.

Are there any potential issues to this swap? I've been impressed with the system's ability to quickly & easily roll with hardware changes to this point, but this surgery is a little deeper than what I've done to it so far.

Thanks,
Clay Carley
