Galaxy RAID GALHDX-7370S-8+12U4D Installation and Hardware Reference Manual

1.2.2 Drive Trays

The subsystems come with 12 or 8 drive trays (see Figure 1-14) designed to
accommodate separately purchased standard 1-inch pitch, 3.5-inch disk drives. The
drive bays are accessed from the enclosure front. Two LED's on the front of the tray
are used to indicate the drive status. A key-lock on each drive tray secures the hard
drive in place, while an easily accessible release button ensures fast and efficient
drive hot-swapping.
Be careful not to warp, twist, or contort the drive tray in any way (e.g., by dropping it
or resting heavy objects on it). The drive tray has been customized to fit into the drive
bays in the subsystem. If the drive bay superstructure is deformed or altered, the drive
trays may not fit into the drive bay.

1.2.3 The RAID Controller Module

The RAID controller module contains a main circuit board, a preinstalled 256MB
capacity or above DDR RAM DIMM module, and the necessary support interfaces.
The controller module contains no user-serviceable components. Except when
replacing a faulty unit or installing/upgrading the cache memory inside, the controller
module should never be removed or opened.
