Figure 27. 3.5" Hot Swap Hard Drive Bay Configuration
The drive bay can support either SATA or SAS hard disk drives. Mixing of drive types within the
hard drive bay is not supported. Hard disk drive type is dependent on the type of host bus
controller used, SATA only or SAS. Each 3.5" hard disk drive is mounted to a drive tray,
allowing for hot swap extraction and insertion. Drive trays have a latching mechanism that is
used to extract and insert drives from the chassis, and lock the tray in place.
