Drive slots

A drive slot represents the location in an enclosure into which a drive can be inserted.

A slot reports where there is a drive present and whether the slot is powered. The drive ID attribute indicates which drive, if any, is in the slot.

Each of these ports can be excluded from the system independently.

Each drive slot must contain either a drive or an empty carrier. The empty carriers have no drive indicators. The numbering scheme for the drive slots is indicated on the enclosure.
