8.0 Product Photos
Components with reportable items are referred to consistently using a yellow blocked
item number. Sub-components are identified by appending that number with a letter.
All reportable items are cross-referenced in 9.0 Locating Materials

8.5 Power Supply Units (PSU)
There are two types of power supply units that are available with this system; however,
the two do not coexist within the same unit. One type or the other resides within the
system. The primary visual differentiator is how the PSU is removed from the system: one
has a lever, the other has a knob.
Note: For simplicity within this document, the two PSU types are referred to as type 4.1
and type 4.2 and sub-components will be numbered accordingly. (e.g., 4.1a, 4.1b, 4.2a,
4.2b)
