The HPE StoreOnce 3620, 3640, 5200, 5250, and 5650 Systems are the fourth generation of StoreOnce
Systems. These systems are designed to be simpler to install and configure than the previous generation
appliances.
• Systems are preconfigured in manufacturing. They ship with all capacity upgrades and optional
hardware cards already installed, licensed, and available for use.
• Storage is preconfigured in manufacturing so the systems arrive with functional RAID sets and file
systems.
• The systems auto-configure on startup; little manual intervention is required.
• User interface and status reporting are designed for maximum ease of use and clarity.
• Storage enclosures are labeled to show the server that they attach to and their JBOD number.
• Cables are labeled with their installation location.
• Hard disk labeling kits make it easier to return hard disks to their proper slots during installation or
maintenance procedures.
If a disk is not installed in its original slot, the system will fail to start.
Because they are preconfigured, the fourth-generation StoreOnce systems must be installed exactly as
described in this guide.
