5.1 Device Installation Order
The OpenFlex Data24 holds 1-24 storage drive assemblies. The minimum number of drives required is 1,
and drives can be installed in increments of 1 at a time. However, there is a specific installation order that is
recommended in order to optimally balance data load distribution.
Each AIC controls 8 drives. The first AIC controls drives 1 - 8, the second controls drives 9 - 16, and the third
controls drives 17-24. To balance the IO load optimally, install in the pattern shown in the following image.
