NOTE:
Up to four drives can be installed when you choose the Embedded SATA Non-RAID controller.
All drives within a RAID array should be of the same capacity and rotation speed.
Up to two kinds of drives selected from SAS 10K HDDs (512n), SAS 10K HDDs (512e), SAS 15K HDDs, SATA HDDs, SAS
SSDs, SATA SSDs (ME), and SATA SSDs (VE) can be mixed in a system.
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.

All hard drives within a RAID array should be of the same capacity.
Up to two kinds of drives selected from SAS 10K HDDs, SAS 15K HDDs, SATA HDDs, SAS SSDs, SATA SSDs (ME), and SATA
SSDs (VE) can be mixed in a system.
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.

NOTE:
All hard drives within a RAID array should be of the same capacity.
Up to two kinds of drives selected from SAS 10K HDDs (512n), SAS 10K HDDs (512e), SAS 15K HDDs, SATA HDDs, SAS
SSDs, SATA SSDs (ME), and SATA SSDs (VE) can be mixed in a system.
For 512e sector HDD, the supported operating systems of virtual machines on Hyper-V are:
- Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 or later
- Windows 7 SP1 or later
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.
