Tape drive bays |
A maximum of two SATA tape drives or one SAS tape drive or one USB tape drive is supported. You can mix tape drives if needed up to a total of two.
The SAS tape drive requires a SAS HBA to be installed in the server.
The USB tape and RDX drive are connected to the dedicated USB tape drive connector on the system board.
If two internal tape drives are installed, then the maximum number of optical drives is limited to one.
Configurations with eight 3.5" HDD bay configurations do not support tape drives (Figure 5).
Configurations with twenty-four 2.5" HDD bays support either one internal tape drive or one internal optical drive, but not both (pic. 4)
