Internal drive enclosures

Every HPE StoreEasy Storage system has an internal drive enclosure that is part of the base unit. The internal drive enclosure is configured in the factory and is not altered. Physically altering the internal drive enclosure is supported. For example, the configuration of the drives might be altered to include smart caching drives on the 1660 and 1860 to reduce raw storage. Smart cache drives can only be used for caching and not storage.
