  • Page 12 Installing the Storage System in a Rack Install the SCv2080 storage system and other Storage Center system components in a rack. NOTE: Mount the storage system in a manner that allows for expansion in the rack and prevents the rack from becoming top‐heavy.
  • Page 13: Installing The Hard Drives

    Hard drives are connected to the backplane of the drawers using Disk Drive in Carrier (DDIC) hard drive carriers. The minimum number of drives for an SCv2080 storage system is 28, which is one full, front row in the top drawer and one full, front row in the bottom drawer.
  • Page 14 Populate each row with identical drives. Do not mix types, speeds, or sizes in a single row. Open the top drawer. CAUTION: If the storage system operates for too long (depending on altitude) with a drawer open, the storage system may overheat, causing a power failure and data loss.
  • Page 15 2. Top drawer CAUTION: If the DDIC fails to latch, do not use it and request a replacement from Dell Technical Support. If a faulty DDIC unlatches within a closed drawer, it can make the drawer unable to be opened.
  • Page 16: Connecting The Power Cables

    Repeat the previous steps for the bottom drawer, populating the first row with 14 drives. To maintain proper airflow, populate the remaining rows in the following order: Top drawer middle row Bottom drawer middle row Top drawer back row Bottom drawer back row Connecting the Power Cables Connect the power cables to the storage system.
