Notes for BTO with SSD
The smallest capacity HDD/SSD is installed in the 1st HDD bay (as system disk) at factory.
If you use 200GB SSD as system disk and want to use 146.5GB HDD as data disk, order the
146.5GB HDD separately and install it later.
When the operating system is Windows Server 2008 R2 and the memory size is 56GB or more,
system disk capacity should be at least 300GB. In that case, BTO with SSD is not possible. If you
want to use 200GB SSD as data disk in such a system, order the 200GB SSD separately and install it
later.
When the operating system is Windows Server 2012 and the memory size is 48GB or more, system
disk capacity should be at least 300GB. In that case, BTO with SSD is not possible. If you want to use
200GB SSD as data disk in such a system, order the 200GB SSD separately and install it later.
