Nope, in fact I have installed 500's and 750's in the 4500 (no modification or settings required).
Do the FULL CLEAN INSTALL and see what happens.
Steps to perform a FRESH INSTALL on the Snap Server.
NOTE: This will destroy all data and server settings on the Snap server.
At the DEBUG CONSOLE window (http://YourSnapServerName/admin/debug.cgi)
Enter the following command in the text field:
touch /nopivot
Press return
It will return a line
Reboot the snap server (Maintenance>Shutdown or Reboot)
Upon Reboot, the server will come up to Recovery Console in your web browser.
Recovery Console is indicated by the System LED alternating between amber and green.
At the RECOVERY CONSOLE screen, browse to your OS image (Recommended that this file be local on your workstation).
Select \"FRESH INSTALL\".
Note: The whole operation may take 10 minutes or more. Please be patient.
