About Internal Disk Drives

The Sun Fire 280R server supports up to two internal, hot-pluggable Fibre Channel- Arbitrated Loop (FC-AL) disk drives. Drives are 3.5 inches wide and 1 inch high (8.89 cm x 2.54 cm).

The drives are supported by the up to 106-Mbyte per second FC-AL interface on the system’s main logic board. Both drives plug in to the two-disk backplane, which mounts to the system’s chassis.

The following figure shows the system’s two internal disk drives. Disk drives are numbered 0 and 1, with the 0 drive being the default system disk.
