Figure 74 4U, 60 DAE disk drive layout and notation (top-down interior view)
Note: The labels for the banks, slots, and LCCA shown in Figure 74 are the physical labels
in the 4U DAE.
Rules for disk drive population
The required order of loading the disk drives into a 4U DAE is (Figure 74):
1. Start at row (or bank) A, slot 0.
2. Fill up row (or bank) A before inserting any disk drives into row B.
3. Continue this order until you fill all the rows with row E being the last row filled.
Note: If a partially filled row is available, the remaining empty slots are to be loaded with
filler panel modules. Rows with no or zero (0) drives do not require filler panel modules.
Spare filler panel modules do not have to be placed into specific slots, but they must be
placed in the same row.
