3.5-inch Hard Disk Drive

The 3.5-inch hard disk drive bay on the front of the server contains four slots on which hard disk
drives can be installed. The drive bay is not equipped with any hard disk drives. Purchase the hard
disks additionally if required.
IMPORTANT:
Do not use any hard disks not approved by NEC. If an unapproved
third party's hard disk is installed in the server, not only the hard
disk drive but also the server itself may be defected. Purchase hard
disk drives of the following models:
– N8150-199F (36.3GB, 15,000 rpm, SAS)
– N8150-200F (73.2GB, 15,000 rpm, SAS)
– N8150-201F (146.5GB, 15,000 rpm, SAS)
For the disk array configuration, refer to the manual that comes with
the disk array controller.
A hard disk drive having the thickness of 1 inch can be installed on each of the slots. The SCSI IDs
of the slots are fixed to ID0 to ID3 from bottom to top.
In the configuration at the shipment, the cable on the 3.5-inch hard disk drive bay is connected to
the SAS connector on the mother board.
To provide the disk array configuration, connect the cable on the 3.5-inch hard disk drive bay to the
disk array controller. The SCSI standard of the hard disk drive to be added should be the same as
that of the existing disks.
A dummy tray is installed in an empty slot of the 3.5-inch hard disk drive bay. This is intended to
improve the cooling effect within the server. Always install a dummy tray in any slot in which a
hard disk drive is not installed.
IMPORTANT:
A specified dummy tray must be used.
