The system comes with two sets of hard disk drive modules. The first set is defaulted and the
second set is optional. Each hard disk drive module, including externally removable trays for
mounting four hot-swap SATA/SAS hard disk drives, allows you to access the drive trays by
simply opening the front bezel.
An HDD module cage comes with a SATA or SAS backplane. Take note of the type of HDD
module cage you purchase before buying hard disks.
