Hard drive blanks
To maintain the proper enclosure air flow, a disk drive or a disk drive blank must be installed in
each drive bay. The disk drive blank maintains proper airflow within the disk enclosure.
Hard drive
Depending on the types of hard disk drives (HDDs) you are using, the following numbers of drives
can be installed in a single enclosure:
• Large form factor (LFF): 12 HDDs
• Small form factor (SFF): 25 HDDs
A variety of disk drive models are supported for use, including dual-ported and single-ported
models. For more information about supported disk drives, see the QuickSpecs for the disk
enclosure, available on the D3000 website.
CAUTION: To prevent improper cooling and thermal damage, operate the enclosure only when
all bays are populated with either a component or a blank.
