Single Bus Conversion
The Single Bus Conversion option is offered for customers who want to
convert to a Model U1 single bus system. This option provides a drive cage for
seven hot-pluggable drives and I/O board that supports a single Wide-Ultra
SCSI-3 bus and essentially converts the system to a Model U1.
