(6) SD (Similar Drive) - The hard disk drive is supported, but not tested. This hard drive model/capacity has not
been tested with this server board, but Intel will support it based on successful testing of a larger capacity
hard drive from the same hard drive family. Intel has high confidence that this hard drive will function
correctly with the server board. This drive uses the exact same firmware and drivers as a larger capacity
hard drive that has been successfully tested with this server board. The only difference between this drive
and the one that was used in testing is the storage capacity. Intel provides the same level of support for all
hard drives listed in this document, regardless of whether the drive was tested or not. Customers should
always test hard drives as part of the final system configuration prior to deployment. Given the fact that a
larger capacity hard drive from the same drive family has successfully completed testing on this server
board, this particular hard drive capacity point will not be tested.
