HPE Boot Device Options offer enterprise customers turnkey, resilient boot solutions that easily segregate the OS from the data storage plane in today’s popular OS for virtualized environments—VMware, Linux, Windows. NS204i presents itself to your management interface as a single directly connected NVMe drive, not a RAID controller. As the NS204i is a hardware boot device, only RAID 1 mode is supported and it will not operate in any other RAID mode. NS204i is plug-and-play with no need to configure or manage the device. Always ensure you are running the latest HPE iLO version and update server BIOS, FW and drivers when they become available.
