neutral  Germaine: Je dirais "non". Je crois que l'expression ici est "agencement de la mémoire"; l'espace est dans la capacité des HDDs.

Convert to Storage Layout
changer l'arrangement interne du boîtier en "Boîtier pour disques durs"


Explanation:
Once "converted to Storage Layout" this box is meant to be filled ONLY with memory drives - with hard disks and their more modern replacements Solid-State Drives (SSD).

Although you can also put SSDs in them, these boxes are usually called "boîtier pour disques durs"

What they are saying is that when you are building a network you can use this same box for building PCs and for memory boxes, you have just to change the internal layout of the box.

It's about the internal "layout"

A "normal" box for PC has an internal layout with attachment points for the motherboard, for the power unit, for slots for cards plugged in the motherboard etc.

"Convert to Storage Layout" would mean to change the internal layout of this box so that you can put in the box "up to 14 HDDs alongside four dedicated SSD" (+ a power unit) but there would be no room for a motherboard, nor for plug-in cards, or internal speakers, for NOTHING else.

Also "Storage Layout" (instead of "storage layout") indicates that it's the name for one of possible internal "layouts" that you can create inside this box.

neutral  Germaine: Vos présomptions à l'égard du boîtier ne devraient pas intervenir dans la traduction. // Last summer. And about every two years over the last 25 to add/replace a HDD or install/upgrade a component.

  -> May well sound like "présomptions" to you but ... When was the last time you assembled a computer, let alone a whole network?

disagree  Daryo: that could be a translation for a "storage device" like a HDD or SSD or a USB key, or a MMC card - here it's about changing the "layout" of a box so that it could be filled with storage devices.
