If large quantities of disks are required, the use of StorageWorks Storage Array cabinets and components is highly recommended.
Systems installed in the US and Canada may use the 3X-H9A20-AD when 120V input power is required. In all other cases, the 3X-H9A20-AF is
preferred because of the ability to support dual AC input.
3X-H9A20-AD/AE/AF cabinets may be joined to GS320 systems. PCI drawers placed in these cabinets require 7-meter I/O cables.
3X-H9A20-AD/AE/AF cabinets may be placed up to 6 meters from the system cabinet. Multiple expander cabinets may be connected to one
another or placed separately. Each group of free-standing H9A20 cabinets requires an end-panel trim kit (CK-H9A20-AB).
PCI drawers placed in remote cabinets require 10-meter I/O cables.
