Storage devices
The system supports twenty-four (24) 2.5" hot-swap SATA/SAS storage devices. The storage
device installed on the storage device tray connects to the motherboard SATA/SAS ports via
the SATA/SAS backplane (SAS storage devices require an optional ASUS PIKE II card).
To install a 2.5" hot-swap SATA/SAS storage device:
1.
Switch the secure lock upward then pull the tray lever outward. The storage device tray
ejects slightly after you pull out the lever.

the storage device tray to release
