But did that allow hot swapping of a mirrored drive or just raided?

Re: Three drive raid set.







The determination is more granular than that.  On a model 170 you had to
buy a certain level, and on a model 270 on the lower end boxes, you had to
buy an optional feature.  These are both 9406s.

I believe only the 9406 boxes allow concurrent maintenance.  You have to
take down the 9402 to replace a drive, even a mirrored one.
