Installing and Removing a Hot-swap Hard Drive
Up to three hot-swap SAS or SATA drives can be installed.
Cautions: If you install less than three drives or devices, the empty drive bays must be occupied by
carriers with baffles to maintain proper system cooling.
To avoid possible damage to your server system, do not use older style drive carriers.
Note: The server system does not support all hard drives. See “Server System References“ for
an Internet link to a list of supported hardware.
