Adding a hot-plug drive
The hot-plug drives are located at the bottom of the front panel. The hot-plug
bay supports up to six 1-inch high 3.5-inch SCA LVD SCSI hard drives.
The hot-plug drives are assigned SCSI ID numbers by the hot-plug backplane
with the drive at the far left side of the hot-plug bay assigned SCSI ID 0. The
backplane assigns SCSI IDs to the other drives in order up to SCSI ID 5 at the
far right side of the hot-plug bay. Install drives left to right.
Purchase additional SCSI drives through your Gateway sales representative.
Specify the system into which you will install the drive to ensure that the
correct drive and carrier are delivered.
Important Gateway tests and verifies the operation and compatibility
of the drives it sells. Especially in a hot-plug or
mission-critical environment, additional or replacement
drives must conform to Gateway standards.
