NOTE:
If the dual-ported SAS hard drives are preferred, there is no need for
a MUX kit on each drive tray. The MUX kits should then be
manually removed from each drive tray.
CAUTION!
The MUX kits are small, delicate components that must be handled with
care.
1.3.4 The RAID Controller Module
Figure 1-7: RAID Controller Module
PN: GAL-83SF14RE16 (for RAID-R1430)
The RAID controller module that came with your subsystem contains a
controller board, a BBU adapter board, an interface faceplate, and a pre-
installed DIMM module. The BBU adapter board is mounted on top of the
main circuit board and is non user-serviceable. The DDR RAM DIMM
socket is strategically placed on an easily accessible location. (See
Figure
1-7
) A BBU slot on the top center of the controller module receives a BBU
module.
The controller module contains no user-serviceable components. Except
when installing/upgrading the cache memory inside, the controller module
should never be removed from the chassis.
