9.1 Hard Disk Drive
The SPARCstation 5 system accommodates 535-Mbyte, and 1.05- and 2.0-Gbyte hard
disk drives. All the drives have a single connector that connects to the SCSI
backplane in the system unit chassis. A specially designed handle, fastened to the
drive, speeds drive removal and installation.
Note – Do not remove the handle from the hard drive. It is part of the customer-
replaceable unit (CRU).
FIGURE 9-1 shows the location of the drives.
