The following notes describe the type of drives that your server supports and other information that you must
consider when you install a drive.
• For a list of supported drives, see
https://static.lenovo.com/us/en/serverproven/index.shtml.
• The drive bays are numbered to indicate the installation order (starting from number “0”). Follow the
installation order when you install a drive. See “Front view” on page 15.
• You can mix drives of different types and different capacities in one system, but not in one RAID array.
The following order is recommended when installing the drives:
– Drive type priority: solid-state drive, SAS hard disk drive, SATA hard disk drive
– Drive capacity priority: the lowest capacity first
• The drives in a single RAID array must be the same type, same size, and same capacity.
Before installing a hot-swap drive:
1. Press the two tabs toward each other to remove the drive filler from the drive bay. Keep the drive filler in
a safe place.
