USB diskette and CD-ROM drives

For driver installation purposes, a USB diskette drive and USB CD-ROM drive are sufficient.
NOTE: Do not use a USB drive key in place of the diskette drive. The OS does not support driver
installation from a USB drive key.
NOTE: HP recommends the use of HP standard USB disk drives.
HP provides both standard USB support and legacy USB support. Standard support is provided by the OS
through the appropriate USB device drivers. Before the OS loads, HP provides support for USB devices
through legacy USB support, which is enabled by default in the system ROM. HP hardware supports USB
version 1.1 or 2.0, depending on the version of the hardware.
Legacy USB support provides USB functionality in environments where USB support is normally not
available. Specifically, HP provides legacy USB functionality for:
•
POST
•
RBSU
•
Diagnostics
•
DOS
•
Operating environments which do not provide native USB support
For more information on ProLiant USB support, refer to the HP website
(http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/servers/platforms/usb-support.html).
