Notes:

  1. For a description of noise emission values, see the Acoustics chapter of the Site Preparation and Physical Planning Guide, SA76-0103.
  2. It is strongly recommended that the customer get the dual power cord feature (feature 5116) for this I/0 expansion unit. Feature 5116 uses two power cords and has two AC boxes.
  3. Side and top clearances are optional when operating.
  4. Each tower can have 45 disk drives installed. Each disk drive that is installed adds 15 W, 0.0158 kVa to the power. The range of power represents configurations from no disk drives to 45 disk drives.
