Hot-Swap Bay
There are two levers on the front
of the hot swap tray to help re-
lease or lock the tray. To remove
the tray, extend both levers and
pull on both levers. To install
the tray, push the tray firmly into
the bay with the levers extended,
then close the levers. Three hard
disk drive LEDs are located in-
side the system fan module for
each hard disk drive tray. LEDs
provide information on the power and activity status of the hard disk drive.
When power is received by the hot-swap tray’s connector board, the power
LED will light. When data is written or read to or from the contained hard
disk drive, the activity LED will flash proportional to the amount of data
transferred.
Hot-Swap Tray
Each hot-swap tray provides an alumi-
num carrier for a single SCSI hard disk
drive with a maximum height of 1 inch
or 1.6 inch (depending on model), a
width of 4 inches, and a length of 6
inches. The aluminum tray provides pro-
tection and maximum heat dissipation
for almost all types of high speed SCSI
disk drives. The provided screws are
needed to secure the hard disk drive into
the tray.
