The answer is maybe depending on the type of disk array you have. If you have the four port SFF one, the answer is probably no. Last I checked, disk trays were not available for drives. When I bought the server, you could only get them by buying HP drives. It has been several months and I have not checked again, but I'd check before I bought another one and if they are not available, I would not buy another one. The media was much too expensive. For example, I wanted to configure mine with a 128gb SSD and a mirrored set of 2t hard drives. I had all of these devices in my inventory which was about a $300 investment. The HP drives that I would have had to use was about $1,500. I wound up with two 1t HP drives which is adequate for my needs but still more expensive than how I wanted to configure. I've provided feedback to HP on several occasions about how uncompetitive their media is. Regards

Yes it can run server 2012 with hyper-v. I assume a standard sata ssd would be fine too though I can't say from experience.

I'm only using the one drive it came with right now. It might have software raid. You can ask the seller via their support link at deepdiscountservers.com.

You can but, I don't know if you'll see improved I/O. I'm not sure what the SATA interface is to the drive. If it's an older generation you may not see improved throughput. Chances are you will see improved I/O. Just not sure how much.

Yes it does, 2GB and a 250 HD. We replaced the 2gb, with two sticks of 4gb total 8gb, and added a 2tb additional HD; However, the little beast will run just fine with the original equipment, and having the ability to load server software with the mouse, keyboard and a Monitor is a very nice feature....makes all of the software installations very straight forward....then you get run it as a 'headless' server after loading all software, updates, etc.....we have two of them running already, and have had no surprises or problems. Documentation and tool set that comes with them is very explicit and useful. Rock On Yes it does, 2GB and a 250 HD.

It's just a case and motherboard (chipset). You have to provide the processor, ram, hard drive, and OS. You can install just about any OS on it though. Win 7 and 8, and I can personally confirm Server 2008 R2 and Server 2012 (R2 included) run perfectly on it.

There are (5) Sata-3.0, 6gb. connections available. And it is possible to have (5) 3.5 hard-drives.

1- there are 2 internal HDD slots, and you could use one of the two external 5.25" slots to add another; 2- cable management is something you implement (I recommend twist-ties for SATA cables) once your drives are in, as you'll determine where this non-critical aspect is needed; 3- the fact that it can use a standard ATX supply is a big plus for upgrading ... good luck with your system build :)

SATA 3 is in reference to the interface for the hard drive (not included). For a graphics card you would be looking at what is in a PCIe slot on the motherboard. However this machine harnesses the integrated graphics of the intel Core i3 processor, which is more than enough for what you need for server graphics.

If your desktop machine is the same as mine, you can add another drive in the removable slot. It must be a sata drive.

I would have to look but i think you can upgrade to 32 gigs of ram, i believe there is three more open bays.

Hi Are you looking for a dual boot between Debian and pfSense, or just Debian? I would have to check w/ an engineer based on your answer to insure there is enough room on the 2Gb DOM. If there is not you can upgrade the drive to a 2.5" SATA spinning or SSD.

This is a diskless NAS, so it has no storage. You will need to purchase your own HDD, and each bay supports 4 TB

I was unable to locate any specifications for the system you identified.Make sure motherboard has Sata 3Gps or 6Gps (faster)If you are adding the SSD make sure you have an extra SATA port, cable and a place to mount SSD.** If the drive is configured properly on a 6Gps port, there will be a very notable performance boost over any HDD, this SSD will outperform any 10,000 rpm drive.

It has several sata connectors. Probably more than you will ever need unless your building a 12+ disk nas or something similar.

It does not come supplied with RAM... you need to add this; there are two empty slots; fill one or both but either way, you gotta buy RAM!

Robert,The Certified Servers team appreciates your question. This particular listing comes with (4) 1 TB 7.2K SATA drives.
