Removing and Replacing Fan Modules
Replacing Hard Drives or Solid State Drives
Tip
You do not have to shut down or power off the server to replace hard drives or SSDs because they are
hot pluggable.
Note
You can mix hard drives and solid state drives (SSDs) in the same server. However, You cannot configure
a logical volume (virtual drive) that contains a mix of hard drives and SSDs. That is, when you create a
logical volume, it must contain all hard drives or all SSDs.
Note
Cisco recommends following the industry-standard practice of using drives of the same capacity when
configuring RAID volumes. If you use drives of different capacities, the usable portion of the smallest
drive will be used on all drives of the RAID volume.
Note
The 500 GB SATA drives (A03-D500GC3) and the 1 TB SATA drives (A03-D1TBSATA) that are sold
with the UCS C460 M2 server are supported at full 6G speeds.
