Some Allegro Network Multimeter appliances can be equipped with hot-swappable storage devices. This page lists which appliances support which type of storage devices. In general, we recommend to use devices with similar specs for best performance but there is no technical restriction to use different units. When using multiple ring buffers (see [[Ring Buffer Configuration Guide]]), it can be beneficial to use different devices, for example, slow but large devices for long-term capturing with packet truncation, and fast but smaller devices for full line rate capturing. == Allegro x310 (1310/3310/5310/7310) == The Allegro Network Multimeter x310 series has 10 x 2.5" device slots with support of SATA3 and U.2. Please note that SAS is NOT supported on any of the ports. == Allegro x410 (1410/3410/5410/7410) == The Allegro Network Multimeter x410 series has 12 x 3.5" device slots. The backplane supports SATA3 and U.2 on all ports. The real support depends on the number of installed extension cards and cables. Please contact the support if you plan to extend your Allegro x410 with more extension cards, HDDs or SSDs to check if and how this is possible. Please note that SAS is NOT supported on any of the ports. == Allegro x510 (1510/3510/5510/7510) == The Allegro Network Multimeter x510 has 36 x 3.5" device slots, supporting SATA3 or SAS3 devices. A separate hardware option allows to use up to 4 U.2 devices. U.2 devices can be installed at the rear of the Allegro Network Multimeter (which has 12 slots in total). The U.2 slots are the top slot in the third column and the 3 slots in the last column (at the right): [[File:3500-back-u2.png|frameless|U.2 slots]] == Allegro x300 (1300/3300/5300) == The Allegro Network Multimeter x300 series has 10 x 2.5" device slots, two of them also support U.2 devices. {| class="wikitable" |- !
