A drive carrier assembly is composed of the drive or drive blank and a drive carrier, and are used to
provide for controlled insertion into, and extraction from, the storage enclosure. Drive carrier assemblies
are installed from the front of the enclosure, which simplifies service access. Closing the drive carrier
handle ensures complete seating of the connectors.
All 24 drive bays must be filled with drive carrier assemblies, each containing either a drive, or drive
blank, to ensure proper airflow and system cooling. The following figure provides a close-up view of a
