Drive Tray Key-Lock Rotation

WARNING:

All the drive trays (even if they do not contain a hard drive) must be installed into

the enclosure. If they are not installed into the enclosure then the ventilation

required for cooling will not be normalized and the subsystem will be irreparably

damaged.
