Note – The hard drives of the Sun Blade 1500 workstation share the same IDE
controller channel. Therefore, internal drive mirroring is not supported.
12.1.1 Identifying the Hard Drive
The workstation supports up to two hard drives. The hard drives are installed on
drive rails that slide into the hard drive bay. The power and IDE connectors to the
motherboard are directly accessible when the access panel is removed. The hard
drives are labeled HDD0 and HDD1. HDD0, the hard drive closer to the top of the
chassis, is the boot drive. See
FIGURE 12-1.
