1These disk drives have been withdrawn from marketing.
2 These drives support up to 6 Gbps data transfer rate, but will operate at 3 Gbps when installed in DS3000 series controllers and
EXP3000 expansion units.
3The EXP3000 supports Solid State Drives only when attached to System x ServeRAID MR10M adapter. They are not supported
when EXP3000 is attached to DS3000 as an expansion unit.
