5.25" Bay(s) - Two bays can accommodate either one (1) full-height or two (2)

half-height SCSI devices (such as a RAID or NAS canister-type controller, or a full-

height tape drive).

•

SCA Drive Carrier(s) - Accommodate up to twelve (12) 3.5" low-profile single-

connect SCSI devices. Backplane design with direct-connect SCA connectors

eliminates cable connections to SCSI drives, increases data integrity, and supports

drive hot swappability.

•

Drive Carrier LED(s) - Provides the following information:

Drive Ready - Indicates that the drive is properly installed and ready for access.

Drive Activity -

Indicates that the drive is being accessed.

Drive Fault - Indicates a drive failure.

•

Key Lock(s) - Assure proper seating of the drive carrier within the chassis and

prevent unauthorized removal or installation of the carrier.

NOTE:

The key lock is only to prevent unauthorized removal or installation

of the drive carrier. Locking the key lock is not requried for drive

carrier operation.

•

Chassis Handle(s) - Provide a sturdy grip for the installation and removal of the

rack-mount chassis.
