Each of the 12 remaining bays in the cabinet 
can directly secure one 5.25” device such as a 
hard drive mounted in a 5.25” bracket or 
enclosure. The bays may also be used in 
groups to secure larger devices such as a disk 
array without the need for modification.
For each of the bays there is one LED located 
at the bottom of the cabinet for drive status 
indication. There is also one SATA cable for 
each drive unit attached to the Duplicator 
subsystem. The indicated connector as shown 
in the picture connects to the source unit, the 
remaining connectors are for target units.
