Configuration rules
For redundancy, customers will need to buy
a. 2x redundant power supplies (750W or 460W)
b. Enablement kit

For RDIMM configuration, customers will need to buy
a. 1x redundant power supply
b. Enablement kit (need the RPS cage)

For SFF support, no additional components are needed other than HDD
Both NHP and HP models support SFF drives

For SAS support, customers will need to buy:
A SAS controller

Configuration Rules (Continued)
Redundant Enablement Kit includes
a. RPS cage + power backplane kit
b. PCIe baffle
c. 2x NHP redundant fans (not sold separately)
Per current CTO rules, customers need to purchase the Enablement Kit and an RPS (750W or
460W) when:
a. Redundancy is required
b. RDIMM is required
c. 2
nd
drive cage is required
The standard 460W NHP PSU cannot support RDIMM configuration
