Replacing a Power Supply
The DS500 comes equipped with two (2) power supply units. This allows the DS500 chassis
to run in Shared Mode, thus enabling both power supplies to operate at a reduced wattage
and lower operating temperature. If one power supply should fail, the other will carry the full
load without interruption.
