    Mass Storage Devices Introduction The HP Netserver LP 1000r comes standard with an IDE CD-ROM and a flexible disk drive. The Netserver will accept up to three Hot Swap SCSI hard disk drives (HDD) in special mounting tray adapters. At least one Hot Swap SCSI hard disk drive is required for booting

    You may choose to mirror hard drives (RAID 1) in the HP Netserver's hot swap bays. However, doing this through the software slows down disk access time, but using hardware mirroring can help speed up disk access time. Hardware mirroring requires installation of a HP NetRAID Controller in the only
