1. Maximum quantity of HDDs can be increased to nine by converting the two removable media bays to three
SL HDD bays using the 3-Pack Ultra160 Hot-Swap Expansion Kit (P/N 33L5050).
2. xSeries Hot-Swap Power Conversion Kit (24P3513) contains a hot-swap power backplane that supports
installation for up to three 250W hot-swap power supplies.
3. Bays A and B can be converted to three hot-swap bays using the optional 3-Pack Ultra160 Hot-Swap
Expansion Kit (P/N 33L5050). The hot-swap backplane can be cabled as an independent bus or as an
extension of the standard backplane using the included jumper cable.
4. Either replace standard CD-ROM or install in one of the media bays. An IDE cable with three connectors is
included with the optional optical drive. If installing as an additional device, connect the cable to each optical
device and the IDE connector on the system board. Configure the optional device as a master using the preset
configuration if replacing the standard device or as a slave if installed as a redundant device.
5. To configure a SCSI storage device, select an optional SCSI controller then refer to Appendix D: Cables -
Storage Units - Controllers to confirm the controller supports the desired External Storage Expansion Unit and to
select a supported cable. For HDD or other expansion unit options, see the specific expansion unit section. For
Fibre Channel storage devices, refer to the Fibre Channel Solutions Overview section.
6. EXP300 includes a single 2M Ultra2 SCSI cable and dual hot-swap 500W redundant power supplies, each
with its own power cord.
7. FAStT EXP500 Storage Expansion Unit (P/N 35601RU) includes dual hot-swap 350W power supplies, each
with its own power cord.
8. The FAStT200 includes two hot-swap, 350W auto-ranging redundant power supplies, each with its own power
cord.
9. Can be upgraded to FAStT200 HA Storage Server through the addition of a FAStT200 Redundant RAID
Controller (P/N 19K1121).
