Storage expansion enclosure bays
This section shows the location of storage expansion enclosure hot-swap CRU bays
and describes the functionality of each CRU. The hot-swap features of the storage
expansion enclosure enable you to remove and replace DS4000 2 Gb/s fibre
channel hard disk drives, power supplies, ESMs, and fan units without turning off
the storage expansion enclosure. You can maintain the availability of your system
while a hot-swap device is removed, installed, or replaced.

P/N before you order replacement ESMs or insert replacement ESMs in
the storage expansion enclosure.
