Drive Numbering
Each disk drive in VTrak is identified by a number used for creating and
managing logical drives. VTrak numbers disk drives from left to right. Numbers a
stamped above each drive bay for easy indentification.
Figure 7. VTrak disk drives are numbered left to right
Caution
If you plan to operate your VTrak with fewer than 15 disk drives,
install all 15 Drive Carriers into the enclosure, to ensure proper
airflow for cooling.
Important
Be sure each drive is securely fastened to its carrier. Proper
installation ensures adequate grounding and minimizes vibration.
Do not install drives with fewer than four screws.
Note
Previous array enclosures from Promise required you to latch the
drive carrier handle in order to power the drive. VTrak uses the
handle only to lock the carrier in place.
