System Drives
There are two system drives accessible from the rear of the Avid AirSpeed 5000 server. The top
drive is Port 0, and the bottom drive is Port 1. These two drives are mirrored, and if a failure
occurs on either one of the system drives, you can pull the failed drive out of the server, and
install a replacement drive without turning off the Avid AirSpeed 5000 server.
As soon as a replacement system drive is installed, the working system drive creates a mirror of
the original drive on the new drive. All Avid AirSpeed operations continue to run uninterrupted.

The drive carriers for the system drives are locked to prevent them from opening during
shipment. The plastic drive carrier key is mounted on the rear of the server beside the system
drives.
Power Supplies
There are two power supplies accessible from the rear of the Avid AirSpeed 5000 server.
If a failure occurs on either one of the power supplies, you can pull the failed power supply out of
the server, and install a replacement power supply without turning off the Avid AirSpeed 5000
server.
All Avid AirSpeed 5000 operations continue to run uninterrupted.

From the rear of the chassis, the power supply on the left is Power Supply 2, and the power
supply on the right is Power Supply 1.
