Can I mix disks 10K FC with 15K FC in the same CX4 DAE?

I have 7 disks of 400GB 10K RPM FC, can I add these disks in one CX4 DAE that have 7 blank slots, but in the others slots I have 450GB 15K FC ?

Can I mix disks with different speeds in the same DAE?

You can not mix SATA disks and Fibre Channel disks in the same Disk enclosure. The SATA disks are the CX-SA models and the older ATA disks are the CX-AT. You can either have all FC or all CX-SA (SATA), but not both in same DAE.

16 CX-AT model disks cannot co-exist with other disk models in the same DAE

18 CX-SA model disks cannot co-exist with other disk models in the same DAE.
