Hard Drive Bays

The chassis can be configured to support up to 6
drives. Hard drives are mounted to hot-swap drive trays for easy insertion to or extraction from
the drive bay.
6.2.1

Hot-swap Drive Trays

Each hard drive must be mounted to a hot-swap drive tray, making insertion and extraction of
the drive from the chassis very simple. Each drive tray has its own dual purpose latching
mechanism which is used to both insert/extract drives from the chassis and lock the tray in
place. Each drive tray supports a light pipe providing a drive status indicator, located on the
backplane, to be viewable from the front of the chassis.
