Refer to the section in accordance with your disk form factor and RAID configuration.
4.1.1 2.5-inch Drive Model Up to six 2.5-inch Drives
Up to eight 2.5-inch Drives
NOTE:
Up to four hard drives can be installed in the Embedded SATA configuration. Embedded SATA RAID controller is supported only on Windows operating systems. An optional RAID
controller is required to configure RAID array for other operating systems.
Hot plug insertion/removal are not supported in the Embedded SATA non-RAID controller. All drives within a RAID array should be of the same type, capacity and rotation speed. Use the same rotational speed of the SAS hard drives. 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.
Up to two different kinds of drives can be mixed in one system For optional RAID controller driver to install Windows Server 2003 R2, download from the NEC

NOTE:
All drives within a RAID array should be of the same type, capacity and rotation speed. Up to two different kinds of drives can be mixed in one system A large-capacity RAID array configuration requires long-time rebuilding when to recover from the
failure. In order to improve the reliability, RAID 6 or RAID 60 configuration, which supports two hard drives failures, is recommended as the redundancy becomes invalid during the system recovery.

with bonding function supported by OS.
NOTE:
NIC Teaming feature is not supported on iSCSI interfaces. The network interfaces for NIC teaming must be the same. When 10GbE and 1GbE NIC teaming are mixed, the teams must be up to four per one system.

6.2.1 RAID Controller
NOTE:
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 to minimize the risk of
becoming multiple hard drives failure.
