Fortigate f100

Hello, We have fortigate f100 and as we discovered there is no any disk for logs.... As I see we need f101, but we already have f100, is it possible to somehow add disk to this f100?

Basically that's the only difference between these two models (datasheet). I don't think it's possible to add a HDD to the device. I would suggest to contact your local Fortinet representatives and ask if it's possible to exchange the device.

As an alternative, if you can't change the product and you are on a tight budget, you can set up a FAZ VM using a trial license that has limitations but for a single/few small FGT it can be fine.

Hello @user7 

Exact FortiGate 101F has a disk:
https://www.fortinet.com/content/dam/fortinet/assets/data-sheets/fortigate-100f-series.pdf

The device doent like to add additional disks.

You can do that on some FMG devices, however, "Fortinet recommends you use the same disks as those supplied by Fortinet. Disks of other brands will not be supported by Fortinet. For information on purchasing extra hard disks, contact your Fortinet reseller.":
