Drive options
When adding drives to the server, observe the following general guidelines:
• The system automatically sets all device numbers.
• If only one drive is used, install it in the bay with the lowest device number ("SAS and SATA device
numbers" on page 15).
Drives must be the same capacity to provide the greatest storage space efficiency when drives are grouped
together into the same drive array.
Installing a hot-plug drive
CAUTION: To prevent improper cooling and thermal damage,
do not operate the server unless
all bays are populated with either a component or a blank.
To install the component:
1. Remove the front bezel (on page 24).
2. Remove the drive blank.
3. Retain the blank for future use.
