uSATA SSDs

The PowerEdge C4130 supports up to two 1.8 inch uSATA Solid State Drives (SSDs). The uSATA SSDs connect to the system board through the hard drive backplane.

NOTE: Use only SSDs that have been tested and approved for use with the hard drive backplane.

When you format an SSD, allow enough time for the formatting to be completed. High-capacity SSDs can take a number of hours to format.
