Checking the Drive Bay Setup

Next, you should check to make sure the hard drives have been properly installed
and all connections have been made.
Checking the Drives
1. For servicing the hard drives, you will need to remove the top chassis cover.
2. If you need to remove or install hard drives, please refer to Chapter 6.
Checking the Airfl ow
1. Airfl ow is provided by four 4-cm counter-rotating fans. The system component
layout was carefully designed to direct suffi cient cooling airfl ow to the
components that generate the most heat.
2. 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.
Providing Power
1. The last thing you must do is to provide input power to the system. Plug the
power cord from the power supply unit into a high-quality power strip that
offers protection from electrical noise and power surges. It is recommended
that you use an uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
2. Finish by depressing the power button on the chassis control panel.
