WIO Riser Cards
Several customer choices are available for other riser cards. See the Expansion Slots and
Riser Cards section in this chapter for details.
Storage Protocols
The storage drive bays can support SATA, SAS, and NVMe in any combination. To enable
SAS and NVMe, additional hardware is required. Once the supporting hardware is installed
for a selection of bays, drives of any storage protocol type can be inserted.
SATA The default configuration supports up to twelve SATA drives.
SAS An add-on controller card and cables can support up to twelve SAS drives.
NVMe The motherboard supports up to ten NVMe drives. A retimer card is required to add
support for an additional two NVMe drives. Additional cables are required.

Drive Carrier Indicators
Each drive carrier has two LED indicators: an activity indicator and a status indicator. For RAID
configurations using a controller, the meaning of the status indicator is described in the table
below. For OS RAID or non-RAID configurations, some LED indications are not supported, such
as hot spare. For VROC configurations, refer to the VROC section in this manual.
