You are designing a Dell EMC PowerStore solution with a customer. They ask if they can populate Slots 0 to 10 with NVMe SSD drives. What should be your response?
A.
Any drive type can be populated in the remaining slots
B.
NVMe SSDs must be populated in the remaining empty slots
Most Voted
C.
NVMe SCM drives are required in Slots 0 through 10
D.
NVMe SCM drives must be populated in the remaining empty slots
I'm not sure. C is wrong (NVRAM is required only). D and B are the same: ssd/scm must be populated. A left.
Data drive slots (0-20) in the base enclosure can be populated with either NVMe SSD or
NVMe SCM drives. The same drive types must be populated in all of the data
drive slots used. You cannot mix NVMe SSD and NVMe SCM drives in the same
base enclosure. If you use NVMe SCM drives, you cannot add expansion enclosures.
- The Base Enclosure contains a combination of NVMe data drives and NVMe NVRAM devices.
- Base enclosure data drives are for data storage and must be all NVMe SSD or all NVMe SCM. You cannot mix NVMe SSD and NVMe SCM drive types in the same Base Enclosure. A minimum of 6 data drives must be used.
- The last two or four slots (dependent on the model) must be populated with NVMe NVRAM devices and are used for write cache and vaulting.
B is the correct!
