Introduction
If more than one option is being installed, read the installation instructions for all the hardware options and
identify similar steps to streamline the installation process.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the drives and the
internal system components to cool before touching them.
CAUTION:
To prevent damage to electrical components, properly ground the server before
beginning any installation procedure. Improper grounding can cause electrostatic discharge.
Drive option
The server blade supports up to two SAS, SATA, or solid state drives. The mixing of SAS hard drives with SAS
solid state drives is supported within the server, but limits the RAID configuration to two separate RAID 0
volumes. Mixing of other drives types is not supported.
CAUTION:
To prevent improper cooling and thermal damage, do not operate the server blade
or the enclosure unless all drive and device bays are populated with either a component or a
blank.
To install the component:
1.
Remove the drive blank.
