3.4 Chassis Components

Storage Drives

The SC802 family chassis supports twelve 3.5" storage drives in toolless drive carriers to
simplify their removal from the chassis. These carriers also help promote proper airflow.
The drives rest on metal brackets that runs the full width of the chassis. They attach to the
system by means of three small, horizontal backplanes that supports four 3.5" HDD each,
and each row of four 3.5" HDDs attaches to the subsequent backplane.
Backplanes (3)
Replacing a Hard Drive
1. There is no need to power down.
2. Locate and press the latch on the HDD you wish to remove from the chassis, then
swivel and pull the handle up.
3. Slide the HDD away from its backplane socket and lift it out.
4. Slide the replacement drive into the backplane socket and push it down onto the
mounting bracket until it clicks into position.
