The SBI-7426T-S3 blade unit accommodates up to three 2.5" SAS2/SATA hard disk drives, which are mounted in drive “carriers”. The drives are hot-swappable and can be removed or replaced without powering down the blade unit they reside in. The three drives can be used to set up a RAID array or JBOD. These drives use a yellow color for the Blade HDD active LED.

WARNING: To maintain proper airflow, both hard drive bays must have drive carriers inserted during operation whether or not a drive is installed in the carrier.
