FAQs

A: EP offers higher write endurance and sustained write performance, better suited to databases, logging, and heavy mixed I/O.

A: Yes, when used with a supported hot-swap SAS backplane and the correct drive carrier.

Q: Can SAS and SATA drives be mixed in the same server?
A: Some backplanes support both, but mixing in the same RAID group is not recommended; match interface and characteristics for best results.
