Additional notes & technical aspects

General:

  • All configuration options depend on the availability of hardware components.
  • Not all combinations are necessarily possible; some models have tighter limits.
  • Upgrades (drives, RAM, NIC) are made via support/sales requests in the robot.
  • In the event of data carrier errors or software RAID configurations, the usual Hetzner procedures apply (see documentation on RAID, hard disk replacement).
  • The customer is responsible for monitoring and operating system configuration (monitoring, RAID configuration, backups).

DX-specific:

  • If mixed configurations are desired, this must be requested in advance.
  • The usable backplane or board layout determines how many NVMe, SATA, and HDD can be installed together.
