Installation guidelines
The workstation typically ships with an HDD, but additional drives can be added to expand data storage:
●
Refer to the service label on the side access panel of your workstation to determine the location
of the SAS and SATA ports.
●
Additional HDDs must be added in a specific sequence, depending on the type of workstation.
●
Once installed, the HDDs are assigned drive letters, with C:\ being the typical boot disk. Drive letters
are assigned using the Computer Setup (F10) Utility.
