Internal persistent storage
The R630 offers two types of persistent storage: LifeCycle Controller (LC 3.0) and Internal Dual SD
Module (IDSDM). A vFlash option is available with iDRAC8 Enterprise.
LifeCycle Controller 3.0
For more information on LC 3.0, visit http://en.community.dell.com/techcenter/systems-
management/w/wiki/4126.dell-lifecycle-controller-integration-for-configuration-manager.
Internal Dual SD Module
The IDSDM card provides the following major functions:
 Dual SD interface is maintained in a mirrored configuration (primary and secondary SD)
 Provides full RAID1 functionality
 Dual SD cards are not required; the module can operate with only one card but will provide no
redundancy
 Enables support for Secure Digital eXtended Capacity (SDXC) cards
 USB interface to host system
 I2C interface to host system and onboard EEPROM for out-of-band status reporting
 Onboard LEDs show status of each SD card
 A BIOS Setup Redundancy setting supports Mirror Mode or Disabled
