1VCS 3.110 and 4.100 are inactive software versions but remain the latest and only recommended versions for use with

EVA3000/5000. HP Command View EVA 9.4 is the only active version that supports the EVA3000/5000 family.

2HP strongly recommends that you use the recommended version of HP07. If you add a disk drive that is running firmware

version HP03 to an array, ensure that you first power off the array.

3For EVA4400/6400/8400 models only. The capacity limit per disk group is 400 TB. This capacity limit is any combination

of drives in a disk group that results in a total physical capacity of up to 400 TB, for example, 200 2 TB drives or 400

1 TB drives. See the QuickSpecs on these array models for their maximum addressability limits and maximum array

sizes. This drive is supported with XCS 10000000 and later.
