HP ProLiant storage servers are preconfigured with default storage settings and preinstalled with the
Windows Storage Server 2003 R2 operating system (OS). This section provides additional details about
the preconfigure d storage for the ML310 G3 storage server.
Physica
lconfiguration
Dependi
ng on the model and version of the OS, each storage server com es with either two or four Serial
Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA) hard disk drives (HDDs) . The sections below describe how
these HDDs are configured for the storage servers based on whether two o r four HD D s are installed.
Two-HDD configuration
The two HDDs included with the storage servers are configured for software RAID fault tolerance using
the motherboard SATA controllers. The HDDs are hot-pluggable, but not hot-swappable. The drives can
be removed or inser ted while the power is on, but user intervention is needed to rebuild the arrays.
Microsoft D isk Manager is used to present the HDDs to the system as dynamic disks. The primary OS
logical drive resides on p hysical disk 0 and is mirrored on physical disk 1 as shown in Figure 6. The data
volume is the second logical drive mirroring the remaining space on disk 0 with disk 1.
