The hard drives are mounted in hard drive carriers to simplify their installation and
removal from the chassis. These carriers also help promote proper airflow for the
drive bays.
Caution
: Except for short periods of time (while swapping hard drives), do not oper-
ate the server with the hard drive bays empty. The hard drive carrier must have a
hard drive or dummy drive installed.
