You can configure the IDSDM for storage or as the OS boot partition. The IDSDM card offers the following features: • Dual card operation - maintains a mirrored configuration by using SD cards in both the slots and provides redundancy. NOTE: When the Redundancy option is set to Mirror Mode in the Integrated Devices screen of System Setup, the information is replicated from one SD card to another. • Single card operation - single card operation is supported, but without redundancy.

Internal dual SD module indicator codes
The Internal Dual SD module (IDSDM) provides you with a redundant SD card solution. You can
configure
the IDSDM for storage or as the
OS boot partition. The IDSDM card
offers
the following features:
Dual card operation — maintains a mirrored
configuration
by using SD cards in both the slots and provides redundancy.
NOTE:
When the Redundancy option is set to Mirror Mode in the Integrated Devices screen of System Setup, the
information is replicated from one SD card to another.
Single card operation — single card operation is supported, but without redundancy.
