2.5-inch HDD/SSD configurations
7.2.1
Equipping the 2.5-inch HDD/SSD bays
– Solid state drives (SSDs) are always equipped before installing hard disk
drives.
– If only one HDD/SSD module is installed, the HDD/SSD module will be
installed in position 1. Free bays must be equipped with a dummy module.
7.2.2
Configuration with up to four HDD/SSD modules
I
SAS HDD drives must not be populated above or below BC-SAS /
BC-SATA HDD drives. In order to avoid this configuration, please make
a free bay intentionally. For example, if only one SAS drive or one
BC-SAS / BC-SATA drive is ordered, this drive will be installed in
position 1 and position 2 will not be used.
SAS HDD drives and BC-SAS / BC-SATA HDD drives can be mixed as
long as SAS drives are not populated above or below BC-SAS /BC-SATA
HDD drives.
The same kind of HDD drives can be populated above or below each
other.
