Optical drive
The PowerEdge C6000 chassis does not support optical drives. If needed, any external USB 2.0-
compliant drive can be used, although no specific vendors have been qualified.
Tape drive
The PowerEdge C6220 II does not support an internal tape drive. External storage peripherals are
not directly validated with PowerEdge C6220 II, but customers can use any supported
network-based storage options validated with our network and fabric-card matrix.
