3.4. Hard Disk Drives
Do not operate the system without all hard drive trays inserted into the chassis. All
hard drive bays must be occupied by either a hard drive or an empty hard drive tray.
Hard drives may be removed while the system is operational but should be immediate-
ly replaced by another hard drive or an empty hard drive tray.
3.4.1. 3.5” SATA / SAS HDDs
The server can support up to 12 x 3.5” hot-pluggable SATA / SAS HDDs. You don’t need to pow-
er-off the system when removing or installing a HDD.
The location of 3.5” SATA / SAS HDD assemblies on the server is shown below:
Figure 3.7. 3.5” SATA / SAS HDD Locations

the bay if inserted incorrectly.
