Do you have the 2.5inch or the 3.5 inch drive version (vertical vs horizontal drives)?

I have 4 slot 2.5" vertical , with connected to raid controller avago.
Now i only have 4 hdd 2.5" sas, each around 300gb.

I want to migrate my zimbra mail server to that server, which i need at least 2TB with raid 1.

Please any advise ?

You should have an sas controller in there and should be able to support the 1.2GB sas drives.

That's a server. Notebook sata drives may not be recognized properly due to their firmware. My suggestion would be to get some drives that are supposed to be used with the system--sas drives. They should actually be cheaper than sata notebook drives in the used market.
