2: Storage Enclosures
Disk Drives
18
Each storage enclosure can contain up to 14 low-profile Fibre Channel disk drives. Controller
enclosures can be cabled to as many as seven expansion enclosures for a total capacity of 112 disks
in one storage system. Each disk is mounted in a sled for ease of installation and removal. These
drive sleds have a lever and latch mechanism that allows you to cam the drive in and out of the
enclosure. Figure 2-3 shows the drive sled and drive bay numbering scheme for the SGI S330.
Each drive has two status LEDs (see Figure 2-3) as follows:
•
Drive active LED: This LED illuminates green when a drive is in the drive bay, and it
blinks when the drive is active.
•
Drive fault LED: This LED illuminates amber when there is a problem with the drive.
