Precautions and Instructions
1. Static-free installation environment: The enclosure must be
installed in a static-free environment to minimize the possibility of
electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage.
2. Component check: Before installing the enclosure, check to see
that you have received all the required components. If any items
appear damaged, contact your vendor for a replacement.
3. Rack installation: The enclosure chassis can be installed into a
rack cabinet using the provided mounting rails, support brackets.
4. Disconnect the power cords if the need should arise for cleaning
the chassis. Do not use liquid or sprayed detergent for cleaning.
Use a lightly moistened clothe for cleaning.
5. Be sure the correct power range (100-120 or 220-240VAC) is
supplied by the power source at your installation site. It is highly
recommended to connect two different power supplies to
separate power sources; e.g., one to a power outlet, and the
other to a UPS system.
6. Thermal notice: All drive trays (even if they do not contain a hard
drive) must be installed into the enclosure. Leaving a drive bay or
module slot open will severely affect the airflow efficiency within
the enclosure, and will consequently lead to system overheating.
Keep a faulty module in place until you have a replacement unit
and you are ready to replace it.

following concerns should be heeded when mounting the
enclosure into a rack cabinet:
