Note:
  1. In 3.5" models, the internal tape drive occupies hard drive bays 3
    and 5, reducing the number of possible installed hard drives to four.
  2. The x3655 planar supports both SAS and SATA drives. IBM is not
    currently offering 2.5" SATA drives for this server, but SATA drives
    may be used. Mixing of SAS and SATA drives is not supported..
