IMPORTANT: DS Series and DS EXP/D3284 storage enclosures support dual-controller configuration only. If a
partner controller fails, the storage system will fail over and run on a single controller module until the redundancy
is restored. For RBODs and EBODs, an IOM must be installed in each IOM slot to ensure sufficient air flow
through the enclosure during operation.
NOTE: The enclosure core product definitions follow.

on the left ear flange at the front of the enclosure.
Two 580W, 100–240V AC power cooling modules. See also
Two IOMs: 2 x SBB-compliant interface slots.
Up to 24 disk drive modules. Where appropriate the disk drive carriers will include an Interposer card. See also

A rail kit for rack mounting.
NOTE: The module quantities quoted above are the maximum that a 2U24 enclosure can support. The following
figures show component locations relative to 2U enclosure front and rear panels.
