Installing and Removing a Hard Disk Drive
Up to three hard drives of one of the following types can be installed, depending on the hard drive installation
option used in your server chassis and the drives supported by your server board.
1.
Three fixed SATA drives or three fixed SCSI drives if the fixed drive kit is installed.
2.
Three hot-swap SATA drives if the SATA backplane is installed.
3.
Three hot-swap SCSI drives if the SCSI backplane is installed.
NOTE: NOTE: The Altos R510 does not support all hard drives. Contact your local Acer dealer for details of
supported hardware.
