The Sun Fire V890 server provides front-panel access to three mounting bays. One
bay houses an IDE DVD-ROM drive, which is standard in all system configurations.
The other two bays accommodate an optional wide (68-pin) SCSI removable device,
which must be ordered separately. The tape drive option also requires a SCSI cable
(Sun part number X912A) and a SCSI adapter card (Sun part number X6758A); both
must be ordered separately.
You can easily convert the two SCSI device bays into a single full-height bay by
removing the metal shelf divider.
