Component Identification
Most of the major components are common to all models. The number of Tape Drives
depends upon the RLS model and the number of drives installed.
Optional, model-dependent features:
•
Barcode Scanner Assembly
•
2-Gigabit Fibre Channel Interface
•
Buffered Drive Interface Adapters
•
Dual, Redundant, Hot-Swappable Power Supply Modules
•
Rack Mount Slide Kit
The theory of operation is basically the same for all models, regardless of which
hardware configuration is used.
