Old pic, of a different system but should be similar:

Left to Right:
Sparcstation board, then prob the cray bus board, then the SE Interphase 
SCSI board, then another SCSI board, then something, then a blank, then it 
repeats.

There is one FDDI board in there and some other stuff.

Later Crays had some other box called a gigaring, and I never really could 
find pictures of it or too much info. They use Fibrechannel drives. I wish 
I could stumble onto a Gigaring setup that could replace the IOS thing.
