SAS and SATA hard drive guidelines
NOTE: The server may look different from that shown.
When adding SAS hard drives to the server, observe the following general
guidelines:
• The server supports eight SAS or SATA hot-plug hard drives.
• The system automatically sets all drive numbers.
• If only one hard drive is used, install it in the bay with the lowest number.
• Hard drives must be SFF types.
• Drives must be the same capacity to provide the greatest storage space
efficiency when drives are grouped together into the same drive array.
NOTE: ACU does not support mixing SAS and SATA drives in the
same logical volume.
Installing the SAS hard drive cage
NOTE: You must provide a SAS controller before proceeding with
the SAS hard drive cage installation.
