SAS and SATA hard drive guidelines

When adding SAS or SATA 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 in the same drive array.
The appearance of compatible PPMs may vary.
