We have just bought a used IBM X3850 M2 (7233) server. The plan being to use it for CFD analysis calculations, taking the workload off our workstations.
Not being an expert on these matters... Can I just install any single 2.5" SAS hard drive into one of the front drive bays, install an OS and then be good to go? Or do we have to use some sort of RAID set up and specific drives?
Thanks.
