l You can configure two rear 2.5-inch or 3.5-inch hard disks in position 1 shown in Figure
2-3. The hard disks are numbered A0 and B0 from top to bottom.
l You can configure one riser card and two rear 2.5-inch hard disks, or two rear 3.5-inch
hard disks on I/O module in position 4 shown in Figure 2-3. The hard disks are
numbered A1 and B1 from top to bottom.
I/O module supports only one riser card if the server with dual-CPU configuration is not
equipped with rear hard disks. One riser card provides two or three PCIe slots.
l You can configure a GE or 10GE flexible NIC in position 16 in Figure 2-3.
l The rear hard disks in position 18 shown in Figure 2-3 are numbered as follows:

equipped with one RAID controller card
– Numbered 0 to 11 from top to bottom and from left to right when the server is
equipped with two RAID controller cards
