FAQs

Q: What is the difference between x1 and x4 U.3 versions?
A: x1 provides a single U.3 link to the controller for simpler or lower-bandwidth needs, while x4 offers higher aggregate bandwidth via four links.

Q: Can I use NVMe and SAS drives together?
A: Yes, Tri-Mode U.3 supports SAS, SATA, and NVMe concurrently with a compatible controller. Verify controller mixing rules.

Q: Is a controller included?
A: No. A Tri-Mode (SAS/SATA/NVMe) controller is required and sold separately.

Q: Do I need special drive carriers for U.3?
A: Use the correct SFF carriers for your chassis and drive type; carriers are typically model-specific and sold separately.

Q: Does this work on non-DL360 Gen10 Plus servers?
A: No. It is designed specifically for DL360 Gen10 Plus.
