Software Support
The 12000 carrier does not include a solid state drive or operating system. Several drive options are
available from Sealevel Systems, but the system is designed to work with off-the-shelf SATA drives.
The 12000 can host both Windows and Linux operating systems. For Windows, you will need additional
drivers to support the hardware. Some drivers apply to the hardware on the COM Express module; some
are for devices present on the carrier board. The following table lists the devices that will require drivers.
