Note:
Hot-Swap Support:
This backplane is a passive device and does not provide hot-swap control. Hot-swap capability depends on the host platform (motherboard/BIOS, OS/drivers) and the installed RAID controller or HBA. If the host supports PCIe hot-plug, hot-swapping may be available; otherwise, hot-swapping is not supported.
RAID Support:
This product does not include a RAID controller or RAID chipset. Any RAID functionality must be provided by the host motherboard or an add-in RAID controller/HBA.
