Re: Changing out drives on a 170: any "gotchas"?

I was surprised to see Lucas' statement on that. I highly doubt it. My
270-2248 isn't hot-swappable, I know that for sure. Had to be a bigger
270 to have concurrent maintenance.

The 170 already has hot plug cages with SCA ports (no SCSI ID needed).
So the mechanical part becomes easy.

Drives are hot-swappable on a 170?!?

I definitely don't remember THAT!

Can anybody else confirm this? (I do note that Hardware Service Manager
and Device Concurrent Maintenance do both exist).
