Storage considerations

Data disk drive configuration: All data drives must be of the same type (SAS or SATA) and capacity.  If SAS disk drives are used, the disk drives must be attached via a single path (no MPIO, multi-path support is provided)

HBA configuration options:
     1. (Preferred) Simple HBA
     2. RAID HBA – Adapter must be configured in “pass through” mode
     3. RAID HBA – Disks should be configured as Single-Disk, RAID-0

Supported bus and media type combinations

•          SATA HDD
•          SAS HDD
•          RAID HDD
•          RAID SSD (If the media type is unspecified/unknown*)
•          SATA SSD + SATA HDD**
•          SAS SSD + SAS HDD**

* RAID controllers without pass-through capability can’t recognize the media type. Such controllers will mark both HDD and SSD as Unspecified. In that case, the SSD will be used as persistent storage instead of caching devices. Therefore, you can deploy the Microsoft Azure Stack POC on those SSDs.

** For tiered storage, you must have at least 3 HDDs.
