1.1.3 Enclosure Chassis
1.1.3.1 Chassis Overview
The Galaxy 12 bay and 8 bay subsystems come in a 2U metal chassis. A backplane board
divides the enclosure internally into front and rear sections. (See Figure 1-3) The front
section accommodates twelve (12) or eight (8) drive trays (with their associated hard
drives) and the rear section accommodates two (2) PSU modules, two (2) or three (3)
single-fan cooling modules, and a single RAID controller module. The two (2) forearm
handles on the front of the subsystem enable you to easily insert/extract the chassis
into/from a rack or cabinet. Pre-drilled mounting holes on the sides of the chassis allow
you to attach separately purchased slide rails.
