Hard Drive Backplane

The hard drives plug into a backplane that provides power and drive ID. A RAID
controller can be used with the backplane to provide data security. The operating
system you use must have RAID support to enable the hot-swap capability of the
drives. The backplane is already preconfigured, so there are no jumpers or switches
present on it.
