Can the Gen 8 boot from a hardware RAID card with the original BIOS ?

N40L/54L can't :

Many thanks, seems it works and can boot with the addon RAID controller provided that I don't use the built-in one.

Should or can I buy the RAID Card from Taobao for the HP N54L ??

Which one is better ?

留意兩張都係sata-2 (3Gb/s) , lsi的話搵返9240 以上果D會好D (行sata-3 (6Gb/s))

btw , software raid 夠唔夠用先?

I see. I will consider as well the LSI 9240 RAID Card

I will try to use the RAID 1 first or RAID 5 later, hence a stable RAID is preferred.

This is the reason why I would like expert opinion on the use of the Hardware RAID vs Software RAID

The RAID card from above source is not expensive so it is worthwhile to consider

1. they only provide SATA2 speed which will limit the disk performance
2. they only support up to 2TB HDDs

Better buy LSI 9261-8i from taobao for around RMB700, or you may find some cheaper OEM versions.

Also the following cables for more HDD connections :

N54L 要跑 win 7 / server 才可用?

Raid 5/6 要多少只 HD 组成?
