CHAPTER 8
Installing Hard-Disk Drives
This section describes how to install and configure small computer system interface
(SCSI) hard-disk drives in the system's internal hard-disk drive bays. The hard-disk
drive bays provide space for up to five 1-inch hard-disk drives. Standard Dell
PowerVault 735N systems include SCSI hard-disk drives installed in slots 0, 1, 2, 3,
and 4.
Figure 8-1 illustrates the system components associated with the SCSI hard-disk
drives.
