You can use only 1-inch hard-disk drives with the 1 x 2 backplane. If you have 1.6-inch
hard-disk drive carriers that you want to use with your 1 x 2 backplane, you need to
place 1-inch hard-disk drives in the carrier and modify the 1.6-inch carriers to be 1 inch
in width. To modify the 1.6-inch carriers to 1-inch width, remove the spacer insert.
NOTE: To remove the spacer insert, use a screwdriver to pry open the clips on the
inside of the carrier release handle, and pull the spacer insert away from the carrier.
After you have installed your 1 x 2 backplane, see Installing and Removing SCSI
Hard-Disk Drives in Chapter 10 of the
Installation and Troubleshooting Guide
for
information on how to install your hard-disk drives.
NOTE: The 1 x 2 backplane sets the top drive to SCSI ID0 and the bottom drive to
SCSI ID1.
