Drives are mounted on a metal carrier called a drive tray. Each drive is linked to a connector on the tray which mates with an individual blade. You just slide the drive tray along nylon guides at the front of the Density system and plug the tray connector into the server blade (ATA version). SCSI drives connect to a SCSI controller in one of the blade server’s PCI slots. A cable connects the SCSI controller to a drive(s), mounted on a drive tray.
