Checking the Airfl ow
1.
Airfl ow is provided by three 9-cm hot-swap chassis fans working in conjunc-
tion with three 8-cm exhaust fans, which are located at the rear of the chas-
sis.
2.
The system component layout was carefully designed to promote suffi cient
airfl ow through the chassis.
3.
Also note that all power and data cables have been routed in such a way that
they do not block the airfl ow generated by the fans. Keep this in mind when
you reroute them after working on the system.
Providing Power
1.
Plug the power cords from the power supplies unit into a high-quality power
strip that offers protection from electrical noise and power surges. It is recom-
mended that you use an uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
2.
Finally, depress the power on button on the front of the chassis.
