NOTES: The installation, configuration, and use of the Dual RAID Controller Module
option for the StorCase InfoStation chassis requires a certain level of

are many configuration options and variables (ie. host platforms, applica-
tions, etc), only general guidelines will be discussed in this User's Guide.
