<strong>GX9000</strong> User Manual Rev 2.1 Working with Media<br />
Working with Media<br />
The <strong>GX9000</strong> has two bays accessible from the front panel and designed to house a variety of SCSI<br />
media devices. Most <strong>com</strong>monly the bays will be fitted with removable Kingston style frames, ready to<br />
receive carriers fitted with Hard Drives or Tape Drives. The bays can also be fitted with MO drives,<br />
recordable DVD drives or any other standard profile SCSI device.<br />
The <strong>GX9000</strong> supports hot-swapping of SCSI devices, you can insert or remove a device at any time<br />
while the unit is powered up. SCSI ID indicators to the right of each drive bay show the SCSI ID of the<br />
device. For the case where a Kingston receiving frame is installed the ID is repeated on the Kingston<br />
frame.<br />
Blanking Plates<br />
The <strong>GX9000</strong> is supplied with one Front Panel blanking plate as standard, fitted to the lower drive bay.<br />
If only external drives are to be used with the <strong>GX9000</strong> a second blanking plate must be fitted to<br />
ensure adequate cooling of the unit. If only one SCSI device is to be fitted, mount the device in the<br />
upper drive bay. When fitting a second device first remove the blanking plate.<br />
