• Depending on your server models, your server supports the following drive types:
– Up to sixteen 2.5-inch hot-swap SATA/SAS drives
– Up to eight 3.5-inch hot-swap SATA/SAS drives
– Up to four 3.5-inch hot-swap SATA/SAS drives and eight 2.5-inch hot-swap SATA/SAS drives
• For a complete list of supported drives and optional devices for the server, see:

• 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 17.
• The drives in a single RAID array must be the same type, same size, and same capacity.
