Hard Disk Drives

Your system supports a variety of SCSI hard disk drives. The SCSI drives must use the
industry standard 80-pin Single Connector Attachment (SCA) connector. Contact your
sales representative or dealer for a list of approved devices. The internal hard disk drives
are located in the SCSI Disk Drive Bays (A).
If you are adding or removing a SCSI hard disk device, consider the following:
Do not hot swap a non-LVD-disk-drive into a LVD-disk-drive only
system for it may cause data corruption. The only way a non-LVD-
disk-drive can be used with an all LVD-disk-drive system is by first
powering down the system, installing the non-LVD-disk-drive, and
then powering the system back up.
Note:
system causes all the drives to operate in the non-LVD mode.
