drives, SSD drives or drives with different capacities:
Install drives in the front four slots of each drawer (a minimum of 20 drives in each unit)
to maintain adequate airflow for cooling.

Distribute any remaining drives across the drawers. If possible, install an equal
number of each type of drive in each drawer to allow for the creation of Drawer Loss
Protected volume groups or disk pools.
–
Distribute any SSD drives evenly across the drawers.
Slide the drawer back in by sliding it from the center and closing both levers gently.
Attach the bezel to the front of the unit.
Position the front bezel in front of the controller unit or the expansion unit so that the
holes at each end align with the fasteners on the unit.
Snap the bezel into place.
Position the left end cap in front of the controller unit or the expansion unit so that the
holes in the end cap align with the fasteners on the left side of the unit.
Snap the end cap into place.
Repeat these steps for the right end cap.
