We are looking to start getting Self-encrypting drives on all our new server purchases.
Doing some research and I see the authentication key, is stores on the Dell PowerEdge RAID Controller (PERC) H700 and H800 adapter cards and are designed with the “on-controller key management”.
My question is, what happens if the controller fails and has to get replaced?
Does a new key have to be set using the BIOS Configuration Utility or how does that work?
