System Features

Interior of system

Power supply provides power to the system components. The redundant
power supply provides hot-swap capability and fault tolerance.

Power supply fans (only available with redundant power supply) provide
cooling for the redundant power supply modules.

5.25-inch drive bays provide space for up to four 5.25-inch drives. A CD drive
comes standard with the system and occupies one of the 5.25-inch drive bays.

3.25-inch drive bays support up to two 3.25-inch drives. A diskette drive
comes standard with the system and occupies one 3.25-inch drive bay. A hard
drive is typically installed in the second drive bay.

Hot-plug bays support up to six 1-inch high 3.25-inch SCA SCSI hard drives.
Empty drive bays contain empty carriers to control airflow and EMC
characteristics.

Outriggers provide support for the castors.

Castors let you move the unit easily for maintenance and servicing.
