HP Proliant DL360 G8 & G9 with SAMSUNG PM863a SSDs

Unfortunately, Storage Spaces Direct has hardware limitations which mean that even if you succeed with a workaround for this issue final configuration will not be supported anyway.

If Storage Spaces Direct is not mandatory you can use HPE's native hyper-converged solution https://www.hpe.com/emea_europe/en/storage/storevirtual.html that does basically the same but is more hardware-friendly or use a free alternative like Starwinds https://www.starwindsoftware.com/starwind-virtual-san-free.

The barrier to entry of using HP SSDs is much lower than it was before. Seriously, you should be using SAS SSDs with this type of equipment. Compatibility is going to be a function of getting compatible and authenticated carriers and good drives. I find that enterprise SAS disks tend to work without issue, while consumer SATA is really just unprofessional and runs the risk of problems:

But shame on you for not using carriers for the Intel drives!!

Otherwise, just test...

This is me testing Sandisk ECO Pro 2TB and Micro 3.84TB SAS SSDs in DL360p Gen8 HP hardware using proper carriers

Note: I shouldn't say this, but I just encountered a customer's Gen9 server full of Samsung EVO 850 SSDs in HP drive carriers. It's shitty, but they seem to work without any problems.

I just think you're looking in the wrong places or maybe want to complain about a perceived inflexibility of HP products. There's a reason for the restrictions.

My supplier has these for $200 each. HP firmware Intel DC S3500. Supported, with proper carriers, warranty and not expensive.
