• When multiple storage devices are configured with the system, specify which devices should be installed inside

system cabinet, inside system expansion cabinet, or installed in external StorageWorks cabinet. Line item

sequencing allows Manufacturing to configure storage options in the appropriate cabinet.

• List storage options to be integrated in system cabinet immediately following the system part number.
• List storage options to be integrated in StorageWorks cabinet immediately following StorageWorks cabinet part

number.

Internal Storage
• System cabinet provides space for four disk Plug-in Units (PIU) if no PCI Plug-in Units are installed. Each of the

two pairs of expansion bays (front-to-back) in bottom of system cabinet can hold one Battery PIU, one PCI

PIU plus one SCSI disk PIU, one SCSI disk PIU, or two SCSI disk PIUs.

• System cabinet provides space for up to seven StorageWorks shelves— three BA670-AB Plug-in Units (each

includes two StorageWorks shelves) and one BA671-AA StorageWorks shelf mounted in a DWLPB; each

shelf holds a maximum of two 5.25

″

devices and one 3.5

″

device or seven 3.5

″

devices

• UltraSCSI devices are supported in UltraSCSI StorageWorks PIUs and UltraSCSI StorageWorks shelves;

BA670-Ax and BA671-Ax support wide and narrow SCSI 5400 rpm, 7200 rpm, and 10,000 rpm disk drives

• Order appropriate BN21*-** SCSI cables for connecting controllers and SCSI storage options.
