–The storage subsystem logical drives and subsystems do not come online.
–The storage subsystem logical drives and subsystems seem to be degraded.
Storage subsystem components
The storage subsystem has the following removable components. These components, called customer replaceable units (CRUs), are accessible from the front or rear of the storage subsystem.
vUp to twelve 3 Gbps SAS or SATA hard disk drives
vUp to two RAID controllers
vTwo power supplies
Disk drives and bezels
Figure 2 shows the locations of hot-swap disk drives and bezels. The hot-swap features enable you to remove and replace SAS or SATA hard disk drives, power supplies, and controllers (in a dual-controller storage subsystem) without turning off the storage subsystem. You can maintain the availability of the storage subsystem while you remove, install, or replace a hot-swap device.
The hot-swap drive bays that are accessible from the front of the storage subsystem are shown in Figure 2.

Filler panel
The DS3200 comes with filler panels in the drive bays. Before you install a hard disk drive, remove the filler panel and save it for future use. Each of the 12 drive bays must contain either a filler panel or a hard disk drive.
