Hard Drives
Depending on your chassis and backplane, your system has one of the following
configurations:
Eight 2.5-inch drive bays
Eight 3.5-inch drive bays
All chassis support hot-swappable SAS and SATA hard drives, and the 2.5-
inch–bay chassis also supports hot-swappable SSD hard drives in systems with
integrated PERC controllers.
All drives are installed at the front of the system and connect to the system
board through the SAS backplane. Hard drives are supplied in special hot-
swappable hard-drive carriers that fit in the hard-drive bays.
CAUTION:
Before attempting to remove or install a drive while the system is
running, see the documentation for the storage controller card to ensure that the
host adapter is configured correctly to support hot-swap drive removal and
insertion.
CAUTION:
Do not turn off or reboot your system while the drive is being formatted.
Doing so can cause a drive failure.
