I have no personal experience with rack mount chassis.
From the past postings, I reckon there are members, in this list, who
have experience in rack mount setups and would like get their advice.
To reduce the H/W cost, I am considering Linux mdadm RAID10 on a 2U chassis.
I would appreciate clarification on the following:
In rack mount chassis, do the cages that house the hard disks have the following feature?
(a) Indicate disk failure. LED lights up and/or audio alarm? (b) The failed HDD can be swapped.
TIA.
