2.5 Storage devices
The system supports twelve (12) 3.5” hot-swap SATA/SAS/NVMe storage devices. NVMe
support may vary between 12 x NVMe for all front bays, or 10 x NVMe on the front bay and 2
x NVMe on the optional rear bay depending on the model. The storage device installed on the
storage device tray connects to the motherboard SATA/SAS/NVMe ports via the SATA/SAS/
NVMe backplane.
• Bay 1 to bay 12 supports NVMe/SATA/SAS. SAS support requires optional HBA/RAID
card.
• Bay 11 and Bay 12 will only support SATA/SAS when the optional rear bay is present
with the optional rear bay supporting 2 x NVMe. SAS support requires optional HBA/
RAID card.
• Bay 1 to Bay 4 will only support SATA/SAS when the optional rear PCIe riser card is
present.
