NOTE:

Storage controllers must be compatible with the server connected.

The drive enclosures connected to one storage controller must be identical.

One drive enclosure can be connected to one port of storage controller.

Eight and more disk drives must be installed.

All hard drives within a RAID array should be of the same capacity and rotation speed.

To configure a large-capacity RAID array, it is recommended to configure in RAID 6 or RAID 60 in order to minimize the risk of becoming multiple hard drives failure during the RAID rebuilding process.

It is recommended to set RAID array configuration drives less than eight in order to minimize the risk of becoming multiple hard drives failure.

Any of RAID arrays cannot be used as a boot device.

NOTE:

Storage controllers must be compatible with the server connected.

The drive enclosures connected to one storage controller must be identical.

One drive enclosure can be connected to one port of storage controller.

At least four drives must be installed.

All hard drives within a RAID array should be of the same capacity and rotation speed.

To configure a large-capacity RAID array, it is recommended to configure in RAID 6 or RAID 60 in order to minimize the risk of becoming multiple hard drives failure during the RAID rebuilding process.

It is recommended to set RAID array configuration drives less than eight in order to minimize the risk of becoming multiple hard drives failure.

Any of RAID arrays cannot be used as a boot device.

When you select 4KB sector HDD, confirm whether your applications support hard drives with 4 KB sector size. For more information, visit the NEC website at:

The 4KB sector drives are make-to-order products. Please consult your sales representative in regard to production lead time.
