Weight increases as FRUs are installed
The 5U expansion enclosure supports up to 92 SAS drives. As Table 10 shows,
substantial weight is added to the enclosure when all drives are installed.

As you install or replace FRUs, the overall weight of the expansion enclosure
increases. For example, Table 11 shows the weight progression as different
combinations of FRUs are installed.
