1.7.3 Normalized
Airflow
Proper subsystem cooling is referred to as “normalized” airflow. Normalized airflow is
required to ensure the sufficient cooling of the subsystem and is only attained when all
the components are properly installed. A failed component should therefore only be hot-
swapped when a replacement is available. If a failed component is removed but not
replaced, permanent damage to the subsystem can result.
1.8. Connector Type, Supported Connections and Other
Information
♦
SCIS-320 68-pin ports (0.8mm VHDCI) for connecting to host or expansion
enclosure.
♦
Cabling length: 12 meters. Note that SCSI paths within the enclosure (an approx.
0.5m) must be discounted when cabling to external devices.
♦
8 (eight) drives are connected through each drive channel.
