The StorageScaler 6000 subsystem is housed in a 60-drive bay enclosure, arranged in four (4) groups.
Each group comprises two banks of 15 bays, that is, (as viewed from the front): 12 bays across the
enclosure by 5 bays deep. There are two numbering schemes: 1x60 and 2x30. The drive bays are
numbered in accordance with the tables shown in
