This document describes how to unpack and install an
ULTAMUS RAID 1200 Storage Array or 1200x Expansion
Array into a standard RETMA 19" rack. Each appliance
has a 2U form factor.
WARNING: Unplug the AC power and network
connections if you think that the unit has become
damaged in any way, or before you move it.
WARNING: Use care inserting or removing an
ULTAMUS array into or out of a rack to prevent tipping
of the unit causing damage or personal injury.

the unit out of the box to prevent injury.
