Upgrading Your Server 9-7
SAS hard disk drive
Can be used only when the optional RAID Controller (LSI Logic SAS CTRL 8708EM2) is installed. Up to three hard disk
drives (mounted on the dedicated 3.5-inch width tray) can be installed.
IMPORTANT: Use the hard disk drives authorized by Bull. Installing a third-party hard disk
drive may cause a failure of the server as well as the hard disk drive. Purchase hard disk drives of
the following models:
– 73.2GB, 15000 rpm, SAS
– 146.5GB, 15000 rpm, SAS
– 300GB, 15000 rpm, SAS
– 450GB, 15000 rpm, SAS
The hard disk drive bays are connected to the Mini SAS connector on the mother board.
To use the hard disk drives in a RAID System, refer to:
When using the Onboard RAID Controller (LSI Embedded MegaRAID):
Use LSI Software RAID Configuration Utility or the Universal RAID Utility to build, configure, and manage the
RAID System.
See "RAID System Configuration" in Chapter 4 and "Universal RAID Utility" in Chapter 6.
When using an optional RAID Controller (SAS CTRL 8708EM2):
Use WebBIOS or the Universal RAID Utility to build, configure, and manage the RAID System.
Refer to the manual coming with the optional RAID Controller, or see "Universal RAID Utility" in Chapter 6.
