Peripheral Devices

The server system provides locations and hardware for installing hard drives, a USB
floppy drive, and an optical drive. The drives must be purchased separately. The following
figure shows the available options.

Hard Disk Drives

The server system ships with three drive carriers for installing three SAS or Serial ATA
(SATA) hot-swap drives.

Note: SAS drives are supported on the Intel

Server System SR1500ALSAS only.

One left drive bay can be converted to be used as a floppy bay. To use the bay for a floppy
drive, the AXXFLOPHDDTRAY accessory kit must be used.

For instructions on installing hard drives, see

“Installing and Removing a Hot-swap Hard

Drive”

Note: Drives can consume up to 17 watts of power each. Drives must be specified to run at a

maximum ambient temperature of 45C.

Note: The Intel

Server System SR1500AL does not support all SAS or Serial ATA (SATA) hard

drives. See

“Server System References”

for an Internet link to a list of supported

hardware.
