Adding a RAID Expansion Module

The RAID expansion module (REM), if ordered, might not arrive installed on the Sun Blade X6270 Server Module. In some cases, this option is shipped separately for customer installation.

The RAID expansion module (REM) enables the RAID functionality for SAS HDDs. The Sun Blade X6270 supports RAID 0, 1, 5 and 6.

You can populate the Sun Blade X6270 Server Module either with the REM model 4620A, which uses a backup battery to store the system configuration, or the REM model 4607A, which does not use a backup battery.

Note that when adding a REM to a server, you must install one or more SAS or SATA storage drives (hard disk or solid state drive) in the server disk slots 0 through
