expansion has two light-emitting diode (LED) indicators; they have no controls or connectors.
Control enclosures can house 24 2.5 in NVMe Flash Drives. Figure 1 shows a SFF 2.5 in. (6.35 cm) drive with the latching mechanism open.Figure 1. Small form factor vertical drive
Note: Only drives that are sold as system options are supported. For more information, see the Support website.
