<DIV class=plainMail>I have an HP Proliant ML150 that failed a bios update, and I need to get the controller and drives in another server as soon as humanly possible.<BR>The ML150 is a G3 series and has a PCI-E. Most of the Proliants from G3 up seem to support my controller, which is Smart Array E200 SAS RAID with 4 hot-swap drives.<BR><BR>Ideally, I would like to get my hands on a ML150 G3 or above (G4, G5, G6...), but any Proliant that has PCI-E and enough hot-swap slots.<BR>I need this for production as soon as possible. I have a steel fabrication app and the company's email down until this is resolved. We determined the problem too late to get anything overnighted, so I have to find something locally.<BR><BR>And yes, it has to be an HP Proliant server.
