2.5-Inch Hdd Cage - NEC N8100-1417F User Manual

2.5-inch HDD Cage

Installing an optional HDD cage in the 2.5-inch hard disk drive bay on the front of the server allows
the server to be equipped with up to eight hard disk drives in addition to eight drives normally
installable. Hard disk drives are not installed in the HDD cage. Purchase them additionally.
IMPORTANT:
Use the hard disk drives authorized by NEC. Installing a third-party
hard disk drive may cause a failure of the server as well as the hard
disk drive. Purchase hard disk drives of the following models:
– N8150-199 (36.3GB, 15000 rpm, SAS)
– N8150-200 (73.2GB, 15000 rpm, SAS)
– N8150-201 (146.5GB, 15000 rpm, SAS)
– N8150-226 (300GB, 15000 rpm, SAS)
To use RAID 5, RAID 6, or RAID 10 with Internal RAID Controller
(equivalent to N8103-116), you need to additionally install the
optional N8103-119 RAID Upgrade Kit.
A hard disk drive having thickness of about 0.6 inch can be inserted to each of the eight slots in the
HDD cage. PORT8 to PORT15 are assigned in the order from right to left of additional 2.5-inch
HDD cage.
