ML350 G5 drive cages for SFF and LFF drives

I am planning the purchase of an ML350 G5. With the move away from SCSI to SAS and SATA things are getting a bit confusing when choosing disk drives...

Am I right in thinking that the ML350 G5 ships with both a hot plug drive cage for 8xSFF AND with a hot plug drive cage for 6xLFF drives? If so, I guess one then has the choice of which form factor drives to fit.

Thanks in advance for your assistance,

Nick.
It's got two chances - it will either work or it won't!

Hello Nick,

Its either LFF or SFF and not both.

HP ProLiant ML350 G5 Server series -> Max internal drives -> 8 - 2.5â (SFF) OR 6 â 3.5â (LFF)
