Drive numbering

The following images show the drive numbering for each of the supported drive configurations. For drive box numbering information, see "Front panel components."

With optional drive cages installed, the server supports up to 4 LFF non-hot-plug drives, 8 LFF hot-plug drives or 16 SFF hot-plug drives. If only one drive cage is installed, it must be installed in box 1. The server does not support mixing SFF and LFF drives.

Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends that you populate drive bays starting with the lowest drive number. Drives are numbered from left to right in each component box.

• Four-bay LFF non-hot-plug drive model
