There are a lot of rules with RAID in the PDF Manual. I recommend you reading the manual to understand all the requirements and limitations of RAID in this system.
- 1 OROC card is selected, by default connected from 8SFF backplane to OCP Slot1.
- 2 OROC cards are selected, by default the 8SFF controller cable is connected to OCP Slot1 (the comparably higher-end OROC card to be selected by default) and the 2SFF backplane is connected to OCP Slot2 (comparably less high-end one) with 2FF controller cable.
- If "HPE FIO No Smart Storage Battery (P06141-B21 )" is selected, then SR932/ MR416/ MR408 controller must be selected.
- If RAID is selected and both SAS AND SATA drives are configured, then only the SAS drives will be used in the RAID set. (SAS drives must be the same part number; SATA drives can vary in part numbers).
- If RAID is being selected in a configuration with Intel® VROC and an internal controller, then Customer Defined RAID Setting (389692-B21) must be selected.

Expansion Slots
Primary Riser
The system can hold up to 3 PCIe 5.0 slots on two risers. The first riser is a default butterfly riser that comes with the chassis. The default riser is controlled by the first CPU and has two PCIe 5.0 x16 slots. Slot 1 is a full-height while slot 2 is a half-height slot.
Secondary Riser
The second riser has two options to choose from. One option is the FH Riser makes Slot 2 on Riser 1 not available while the LP Riser does make slot 2 available. With the second option, you are able to get all 3 PCIe 5.0 slots integrated.
If you install the NS204i-u Rear Cable Kit (P54702-B21), then slot 2 of riser 1 will not be available since this is where that card can be installed. You do have another option of installing this Ns204i-u internally (P48920-B21). This OS Boot device includes 2x 480GB M.2 NVMe SSDs, with preconfigured hardware RAID1.

Integrated Lights-Out 6 (iLO 6)
Software that enables you to securely configure, monitor, and update your HPE ProLiant Gen11 servers seamlessly, from anywhere.
Embedded in Hewlett Packard Enterprise servers, HPE Integrated Lights-Out 6 (iLO 6) is an exclusive core intelligence that monitors server status, providing the means for reporting, ongoing management, service alerting, and local or remote management to quickly identify and resolve issues.
Power
HPE Flexible Slot (Flex Slot) Power Supplies share a common electrical and physical design that allows for hot plug, tool-less installation into HPE ProLiant Gen11 Performance Servers. Flex Slot power supplies are certified for high-efficiency operation and offer multiple power output options, allowing users to "right-size" a power supply for specific server configurations. This flexibility helps to reduce power waste, lower overall energy costs, and avoid "trapped" power capacity in the data center.
Mixing of 2 different power supplies is NOT supported.
