DL380p Gen8

[DianaG]

Hi,

I would like to know a couple of things about an old DL380 Gen8 server.

How can be verified the type of configuration:  either 8SFF Hard drive bays (16SFF with optional upgrade) or 8LFF or 12LFF or 25SFF?

Basically i want to find out how many HDDs can be added to the configuration?

thanks
