Modular 2U SAS expansion unit

A modular 2U SAS expansion unit (factory designation RKAKS) provides
additional storage capabilities for the base units.For the AMS 2100 and the
AMS 2300, this unit can install a maximum of 24 SAS disk drives. An
expansion unit provides additional storage space and can connect the base
