Capacity (MB/GB): Use drives with the same capacity. RAID arrays use a “least-

capacity of each drive in the array is the maximum capacity

of the smallest drive.

•

Profile: The drive trays and bays of the system are designed for 3.5-

inch wide x 1-inch high hard drives.

•

Drive type: The 24 BAY subsystem can use either SATA-II or SATA-I

interface hard drives.

2.7.3 Drive Installation

Step 1. Place the SATA hard drive into the drive tray. (See Figure 2-6) Make

sure the hard drive is oriented in such a way that the drive’s SATA

connector is facing the back of the drive tray.

Step 2. Adjust the drives location until the mounting holes in the drive canister

are aligned with those on the hard drive. Secure the drive with four (4)

supplied 6/32 flathead screws. (See Figure 2-6)

WARNING!

Only use screws supplied with the drive canisters. Longer screws may damage the

hard drives.
