RAID or JBOD/Expansion Unit Identification on Chassis. A label on the bottom lip
of an array chassis, underneath the front bezel, indicates whether it is a JBOD array
or a RAID array. For instance, “3510 AC JBOD” refers to an alternating-current
version of a 3510 JBOD array, “3510 DC JBOD” refers to a direct-current version of a
JBOD array, and “3510 AC RAID” refers to an alternating-current version of a RAID
array. Similarly, using a UNIX command such as probe-scsi-all provides similar
