Introduction

Install any hardware options before initializing the server. If multiple options are being installed, read the installation
instructions for all the hardware options to identify similar steps and streamline the installation process.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the drives and the internal system
components to cool before touching them.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to electrical components, properly ground the server before beginning any
installation procedure. Improper grounding can cause electrostatic discharge.

Drive installation guidelines

Depending on the configuration, the server supports SAS and SATA drives.
Observe the following general guidelines:
• The system automatically sets all drive numbers.
• If only one drive is used, install it in the bay with the lowest drive number.
For drive numbering, see Drive bay numbering.
• Drives with the same capacity provide the greatest storage space efficiency when grouped into the same drive array.

Drive support information

Depending on the drive cage installed, the server supports the following drive types:
• Non-hot-plug LFF SATA drives
• Hot-plug LFF SATA or SAS drives
• Hot-plug SFF SATA or SAS drives
The server supports up to 16 drives in SFF configuration and 8 drives in LFF configuration.
The embedded HPE Smart Array S100i SR Gen10 Controller supports SATA drive installation. For SAS support, install a
type-p standup plug-in Smart Array controller option.
