6-4 Storage Drives
The SC226S chassis supports forty-eight 2.5" NVMe solid state drives (SSDs).
They can be removed without powering down the system if your operating system
supports RAID.
Threre are also two hot-swap hard drive bays in the rear.
Note: Enterprise level SSDs and hard disk drives are recommended for use in
Supermicro servers. For information on recommended drives, visit the Supermicro
website.
