Installing Your Drives

The drive carrier accommodates 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch drives.
The VTrak D5000 does support use of SATA drives (SATA drives require use of an adapter), but SAS drives
are recommended.
Follow instructions on the next page to install drives in the VTrak D5300, VTrak D5600 and VTrak D5800.
SATA drives require a SAS-to-SATA adapter, available from PROMISE
Technology at http://www.promise.com/
SAS drives do not require adapters.
Cautions
Swing open the drive carrier handle before you insert the drive
carrier into the enclosure.
To avoid hand contact with an electrical hazard, remove only one
drive carrier a time.
