Hard Disk Drives
Intel® Server Board SE7501WV2
Revision 3.5
38
Note that not all hard drives were tested under all operating systems. The following notation is used in the tested hard drives table
below to indicate the support level that Intel provides for a particular hard drive with a particular operating system:
Number (i.e. 1)
This hard drive has been tested and is supported under the operating system identified
by the operating system identification number.
Number in brackets (i.e. [1])
This hard drive has been tested, but is NOT supported under the operating system
identified by the operating system identification number.
SD (Similar Drive)
The hard disk drive is supported, but not tested. This hard drive model/capacity has
not been tested with this server board, but Intel will support it based on successful
testing of a larger capacity hard drive from the same hard drive family. Intel has high
confidence that this hard drive will function correctly with the server board. This drive
uses the exact same firmware and drivers as a larger capacity hard drive that has
been successfully tested with this server board. The only difference between this drive
and the one that was used in testing is the storage capacity. Intel provides the same
level of support for all hard drives listed in this document, regardless of whether the
drive was tested or not. Customers should always test hard drives as part of the final
system configuration prior to deployment. Given the fact that a larger capacity hard
drive from the same drive family has successfully completed testing on this server
board, this particular hard drive capacity point will not be tested.
IHVT (IHV Tested)
The hard disk drive was tested according to Intel-approved guidelines and test
procedures by the Independent Hardware Vendor (IHV) that manufactured the drive.
Intel provides the same level of support for all hard drives listed in this document,
regardless of whether the drive was tested in an Intel lab or not. IHV test reports
remain the property of the IHV (Intel cannot provide copies of these reports).
Notes:
The ATA HDDI board does NOT support hot-swapping hard drives. Doing so may cause data loss.
† - ATA drives from both †Western Digital and †Maxtor have been found to have their interface connectors placed in a location that is
mechanically not compatible for use with the ATA backplane of the server chassis SR1300.
ATA drives are only supported in the server chassis SR1300 using an ATA backplane board.
When using some external SCSI devices it may be necessary to power the system on before powering on the external device.
