Disk Enclosure SC10 Modules
The disk enclosure hot-swappable modules include the following:
•
Disks and fillers
•
Fans
•
Power supplies
Disks and Fillers
Hot-swappable disk modules make it easy to add or replace disks. Fillers are required in all
unused slots to maintain proper airflow within the enclosure.
Figure 4 illustrates the 3.5-inch disks in a metal carrier. The open carrier design allows ten
half height (1.6 inch) disks to fit the 19-inch width of a standard rack and meet cooling
needs.
WARNING Touching exposed circuits on the disk module can damage the disk
drive inside. To avoid damage, always handle disks carefully and use
ESD precautions.
The following plastic parts of the disk are safe to touch:
•
Bezel-handle (A in Figure 4 )
•
Cam latch (B)
•
Insertion guide (F)
Metal standoffs (D) protect exposed circuits against damage when the disk is laid
circuit-side down on a flat surface.
