I know I had a legacy install on a Proliant I supported that was installed upside down and burnt out it's drives after a few years (surprised it lasted that long). When I came on-site to reinstall it, I tried to install 16.04 since I already had the install media on me, I couldn't as it had issues with the RAID array controller. I had to roll back to 14.04 and then upgrade it to maintain compatibility. I had a similar issue with CentOS6/7 a bout a year ago as well, also on HP servers. In my experience, both times it was the RAID controller.
