Familiarizing yourself with the controller

Overview

The Controller Box has three drive carriers, accessed from the front.

The sides of the box each feature a guide rail channel and mounting screw holes to enable
the box to be secured inside a computer case.

The connectors and jumpers are located on the rear panel.

Each drive carrier can hold a one-inch high 3.5-inch form factor IDE disk drive. This makes it
easy to hot swap a drive in the event of a failure, without affecting the status of the remaining
drives.
