Hard disk drives (HDD) / Solid state drives (SSD)
The server blade can be equipped with a maximum of two 2.5-inch HDD/SSD
modules.
Each HDD/SSD module can accommodate an SAS/SATA hard disk drive or an
SAS/SATA SSD drive. The module is connected to the HDD backplane
wirelessly. This allows HDD/SSD modules to be plugged in or pulled out easily.
Two SAS/SATA hard disk drives or SAS/SATA SSD drives can be controlled by
the onboard SATA controller or the SAS/SATA RAID controller.
Mixed configurations of SAS HDDs, SATA HDDs, SAS SSDs and SATA SSDs
within the same logical drive (RAID array) are not supported.
If the server blade has a corresponding RAID configuration, HDD/SSD modules
can also be replaced during operation.
