Drive Replacement
The modular storage system has two front-accessible drive bays that support hot-swappable, 2.5 inch drives.
If you purchased the UCS B200 M4 blade server without the modular storage system configured as a part of
the system, a pair of blanking panels may be in place. These panels should be removed before installing hard
drives, but should remain in place to ensure proper cooling and ventilation if the drive bays are unused.
You can remove and install hard drives without removing the blade server from the chassis.
The drives supported in this blade server come with the drive sled attached. Spare drive sleds are not available.
A list of currently supported drives is in the specification sheets at this URL:http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/
