Apollo DX2800 Gen10 Chassis bay numbering
Apollo DX2800 Gen10 Chassis with 16 NVMe drives
• The first digit refers to the server numbering.
• The second digit refers to the drive numbering.
• This drive configuration does not support connection to the embedded Smart Array S100i SR Gen10 Software RAID
nor to a Smart Array type-p controller.
• Each 1U server supports four NVMe drives, while each 2U server supports eight NVMe drives.
Apollo DX2800 Gen10 Chassis with 24 SFF drives
• The drive configuration requires an HPE Smart Array type-p controller linked to the SAS expander module located
between drive bays 12 and 13. The expander function treats all drive bays as a single box 1 so the drive numbering is
continuous.
• The drive bays in this configuration are divided, by default, by the number of server host ports.
