Configuring The Hard Disk Drive; Accessing The Drive Bays - Acer AT350 F2 Series Service Manual

30

Configuring the hard disk drive

The AT350 F2 accommodates up to eight 3.5-inch or sixteen 2.5-inch hot-
plug SATA/SAS hard disk drives.
By default, the system is shipped with only one hard disk drive bay. To
install additional hard disk drives in the second hard disk drive bay, you
need to purchase the optional bay and SAS RAID controller.
Note: Maximum HDD support is SKU-dependent.

Accessing the drive bays

Since SATA/SAS drives have hot-plug capability, you do not need to
access the inside of the chassis or power down the system to install or
replace SATA/SAS drives. Access the HDD bay door as follows:
1 Unlock the drive bay door (1).
2 Open the HDD bay door as shown (2).
