Hard Drives
Depending on your chassis and backplane, your system has one of the following
configurations:
• Eight 2.5-inch drive bays
• Four 3.5-inch drive bays with a flex bay for the optional tape backup unit
• Six 3.5-inch drive bays without the flex bay
All chassis support hot-swappable SAS and SATA hard drives, and the 2.5-
inch–bay chassis also supports hot-swappable SSD hard drives in systems with
integrated PERC controllers.
