Data Security

• Power down your host computer and all attached peripheral devices before beginning
installation.
• Each enclosure contains up to 60 removable disk drive modules. Disk units are fragile. Handle
them with care, and keep them away from strong magnetic fields.
• ALL the supplied plug-in modules and blanking plates must be in place for the air to flow
correctly around the enclosure and also to complete the internal circuitry.
• If the enclosure is used with modules or blanking plates missing for more than a few minutes,
the enclosure can overheat, causing power failure and data loss. Such use may also invalidate
the warranty.
• If you remove a drive module, replace it immediately. If it is faulty, replace it with a drive
module of the same type and capacity.
• Ensure that all disk drives are removed from the enclosure before attempting to move the rack
installation.
• Do not abandon your backup routines. No system is completely foolproof.
