A PCIe-based add-in card that provides two M.2 slots (supporting both 2280 and 22110 form factors) for either SATA or NVMe SSDs via SlimSAS connection. Places is Slot 1, takes a PCIe slot.
- No RAID supported on this option
- Cannot be selected with the NS204i-u boot device
- Not compatible with EDSFF CTO server + Liquid Cooling Fan Kit
- Requires Performance or Liquid Cooling fans if used with SFF/LFF servers
A dedicated hot-plug boot device that mounts externally accessible at the rear of the server, housing two M.2 NVMe SSDs pre-configured in RAID 1 mirror. It does not occupy a PCIe slot but requires the secondary low-profile riser (P55029-B21)
- RAID 1 is pre-configured and cannot be changed
- Cannot be selected with the M.2 enablement kit
- Requires Performance or Liquid Cooling fans
- Not compatible with EDSFF CTO + Liquid Cooling Fan Kit

The MR (MegaRAID) and SR (SmartRAID) series use different RAID configuration tools and cannot be mixed in the same server. Both series support SAS, SATA, and NVMe drives when used with a tri-mode U.3 backplane, enabling mixed drive configurations. The server has no embedded software RAID — direct attached SATA drives operate in AHCI mode only, so a controller is required for any hardware RAID.
SR Series (SmartRAID)
SR Series
Installation Service Manual
The SR series is the high-end controller line, only available in type-p PCIe form factor.
This is the go-to choice for high drive count configurations or maximum storage throughput. Like the cached MR controllers it requires a battery or capacitor for cache protection.
MR Series (MegaRAID) - View PDF
MR Series
Installation Service Manual
The MR series is the broader, more flexible controller line available in both type-o and type-p form factors.
The cached models (MR408i-o, MR416i-o, MR416i-p) add a Flash-Backed Write Cache (FBWC)
Choosing Between MR and SR
- Need OCP slot deployment → MR type-o only
- Simple RAID, no cache needed → MR216i-o or MR216i-p
- Need cache, moderate drive count → MR408i-o or MR416i-o/p
- Maximum drive count or throughput → SR932i-p
- External SAS/SATA storage → E208e-p (Gen10, type-p, external only)
Non GPU RisersPrimary Riser installed by default (Slot 1)

GPU RisersP64520-B21 - FHFL Add-on Cards Support Kit
- The Primary riser default - PCIe Gen5 x16 FH HL.
- P55029-B21 - Required if NS204i-u (P48183-B21) is selected
- P64520-B21 - In a GPU Server this provides extra PCIe Lanes to support FH/FL Cards in Slot 1
The Manuals are very poor in this GPU section. They do not explain how 4 SW GPUs are installed in this server. They also dont have any information about supported GPUs other than the L4 SW GPU. Below are GPUs that work for the DL320 Gen 11.
