Hard Disk Drive
Bays for hard disk drives are provided at the front of the server.
A hard disk drive mounted in a dedicated drive tray can be purchased. Install the hard disk drive on the server
with it mounted in the drive tray.
Note the following precautions to install hard disk drives.
•
For onboard connection, hard disk drives having different capacities, types, or rotational speeds cannot be
installed together.
•
In the RAID system, all the hard disk drives in an array group must have the same capacity, type, and
rotational speed.
•
If using hard disk drives in a RAID system, jumper settings or a change of cables may be required.
Bays can contain up to eight hard disk drives.
Unique slot numbers have been assigned to each slot.

Use hard disk drives specified by NEC. Installing a third-party hard disk drive
might cause a failure of the server as well as the hard disk drive.
