The following disk drives have been qualified for use with the SS-1200 series enclosure:
This chapter describes the procedures for installing FC-AL drive carrier modules in a SS-1200-FCAL enclosure.
1.1.1
Drive Carrier Modules
Each disk drive is enclosed in an extruded aluminum carrier which provides excellent thermal conduction, Radio
Frequency and Electro Magnetic induction protection and affords the drive maximum physical protection.
The cap also supports an ergonomic handle which provides the following functions:
• Camming of carrier into and out of drive bays.
• Positive 'spring loading' of the drive/backplane connector.
• An anti-tamper lock operated by a socket type key.
1.1.1.1
Drive LEDs
Each Drive carrier incorporates two indicators, an upper (Green) and lower (Amber). In normal operation the green
LED will be ON and will flicker as the drive operates.
