Drive bay sequence
After the disk enclosures are secured in the rack, install the hard drives into the drive bays. Drives
must be installed in the proper bay sequence in the enclosures for optimum HP Command View EVA
performance and data integrity.
Example 1
: If you have four enclosures, and eight drives, you should install four drives into bay 1 of
each enclosure and four drives into bay 2 of each enclosure. Do not install all the drives into enclosure
1 and leave the other enclosures empty.
CAUTION:
Install hard drives in the enclosures only after securing the enclosures in the rack:
1. An enclosure populated with hard drives is too heavy to lift safely.
2. Movement of an enclosure during installation might damage the internal storage media of installed
hard drives.
