Dell PowerStore Installation and Service Guide for PowerStore 1000, 1200, 3000, 3200, 5000, 5200, 7000, 9000, and 9200
Install additional NVRAM drives for a 3000 to 5200 upgrade
If you are upgrading a PowerStore 3000 to a PowerStore 5200, you must add NVRAM drives to slots 21 and 22 of the base enclosure. These NVRAM drives must be new drives that come with the upgrade kit.
NOTE:The drives that you insert in slots 21 and 22 during the upgrade must be the same type (FIPS or non-FIPS) as the drives in slots 23 and 24. The upgrade does not support a combination of the two drive types.
NOTE: If you want to switch from non-FIPS drives to FIPS drives, you must replace the non-FIPs drives in slots 23 and 24 before adding the new drives to slots 21 and 22. See
https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000184192/powerstore-fips-certified-nvram-nvme-drive-replacement-procedure-to-avoid-data-unavailable-or-data-loss. Only authorized Dell personnel can complete this procedure. Customers should contact their service provider.
NOTE:If non-NVRAM drives occupy slots 21 and 22, contact your service provider.
