4-8. Five-Tray Hot-Swap Bay

Maximum uptime in a server requires devices that can be easily replaced or “swapped.” The main hard drives are mounted in internal hot-swap trays for easy replacement. The AP3000 hot-swap bay has two different models: Five-tray hot-swap bay and three-tray hot-swap bay. The 1.0 inch SCA hot-swap bay can accommodate five 1.0 inch hard disk drives.
