D370 disk bays

Hi Everyone,

I probably have an easy question. On a D370, there are 5 low profile bays. I vaguely remember somewhere that on one of the D class systems you couldn't use all the bays. Can someone tell me if all bays can be used on the D370?

I have not heard of the restriction that you talk of, and certainly I believe that hthe bays are there to be used.
Certainly I use 5 discs in my Dx70

On every D3x0 you can use all 5 slots for hot plug disks
but...

there are only two disk slots in the D2x0.

So, in a D370 you have always 5 disk slots

Some times i prefer what i can see.

Open D's door and look for disks conectors. If they are there, just insert you disk and do an ioscan.

If you cant do it, yes... all 5 bays can be used on a D370.
