			    MANHATTAN G SERVERS MISSING DRIVE RAILS


PROBLEM
Manhattan G 560 servers may be missing some of the drive rails used to mount 
floppy, CD-ROM, and hard drive options in internal and external drive bays.

CAUSE
Manhattan G 560 Servers should include a set of drive rails for each empty 
drive bay in the system. The number of drive rails will vary depending upon 
the number of devices installed in the system at the factory.  Some systems 
were inadvertently shipped without the correct number of drive rails.

The rails may be ordered as either a kit, or as individual parts. The part
