The Series 4000 server comes in four models: Hitachi NAS Platform 4040, Hitachi NAS Platform 4060, Hitachi NAS Platform 4080, and Hitachi NAS Platform 4100.
Physically, models HNAS 4060 and HNAS 4080 are identical. To upgrade a model HNAS 4060 to a model HNAS 4080 requires the addition of a software license. From outside of the chassis, model HNAS 4100 is identical to the other models--it shares the same ports and connectivity.

If there is an issue with the motherboard (MMB) or field programmable gate array (MFB), the server must be returned for repair. MMBs are not field replaceable and, typically, MFBs are not field replaceable). Many of the other components can be replaced in the field, and some are hot-swappable (they can be changed without shutting down the server). Field replaceable units (FRUs) include power supplies, an NVRAM backup battery pack, fan assemblies, and disk drives.
