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.
