Drive guidelines
CAUTION: Do not remove an NVMe SSD from the drive bay while the Do Not Remove button LED is flashing. The Do
Not Remove button LED flashes to indicate the device is still in use. Removal of the NVMe SSD before the device has
completed and ceased
signal/traic flow can cause loss of data.
Depending on the configuration, this server supports SAS, SATA, and NVMe drives.
Observe the following general guidelines:
• For drive numbering, see Drive bay numbering.
• The NVMe SSD is a PCIe bus device. Do not remove a device attached to a PCIe bus without allowing it to first complete
and cease the signal/traic flow.
• The system automatically sets all device numbers.
• If only one hard drive is used, install it in the bay with the lowest device number.
• Install drives of the same capacity to provide the greatest storage space eiciency when drives are grouped into the same
drive array.
