I’m trying to upgrade my backup PLEX server. It’s an OptiPlex 390 (don’t laugh): i5 maxed at 8Gb RAM. I picked up an H310 raid card (Dell PERC H310 9240-8i M1015 SAS SATA 8-Port Raid Controller) but I’m having two issues that I can’t get past:

  1. I’m trying to raid 0 two 14Tb drives, it will only let me select one or the other, not both.

  2. “. . . megaraid_sas failed to init . . .”

The raid configuration (Ctrl-R) works and it’s posting, but when Ubuntu loads I get the failed to init msg.

Am I wasting my time?

Can you just load them as normal drives? Then use mergerfs to pool them together?
