The RAID backplane
The RAID backplane allows you to easily configure a reliable RAID
subsystem. The RAID bay supports six 1-inch or 1.6-inch high 3.5-inch
drives. For optimum operation, only approved, RAID-ready drives should
be used with the RAID backplane.
Drives are mounted on a rail system, which provides quick and easy
installation and hot-swapping capability. A fully functional RAID
subsystem is controlled by a RAID Caching Controller.
Hot-swapping is a useful feature that allows you to replace a failed hard
disk drive without interrupting system operation. In the event of a
hot-swappable drive failure, in which the drive is part of a RAID 5 array, the
system continues normal operation. The failed drive can be replaced and its
contents rebuilt automatically on an equivalent replacement drive without
interrupting the operation of the system.
To configure the backplane, refer to the RAID Cage Configuration Guide.
