Chapter 4 - Hardware Description
MGC-50/100 Control Unit with Removable Hard Drive
4-12
As an option the Control Unit (CU) can be supplied with a removable Hard
Drive. The Hard Drive is pre-configured for either XPEK or pSOS Operating
Systems. This Control Unit does not include a floppy disk drive.
•
MGC Manager versions 6.11 and 7.0.2 also can support the removable
Hard drive.
•
It is possible to configure several removable Hard drives for a single MCU.
Sharing Hard Drives between two different MCU's is not possible due to the
different cards, network services and reservations. However, if you need to
move a drive to another MCU contact Polycom support.
The following sections describe the steps required to install the removable
hard drive.
