Chapter 2: Hardware Installation
Overview
Your M3800 is designed for easy installation. To help you get started, the
following chapter will help you quickly get your M3800 up and running. Please
read it carefully to prevent damaging your unit during installation.
Before You Begin
Before you begin, be sure to take the following precautions:
1. Read and understand the Safety Warnings outlined in the beginning of
the manual.
2. If possible, wear an anti-static wrist strap during installation to prevent
static discharge from damaging the sensitive electronic components on the
M3800.
3. Be careful not to use magnetized screwdrivers around the M3800's
electronic components.
Hard Disk Installation
The M3800 supports three standard 3.5" Serial ATA (SATA) hard disks. To install
a hard disk into the M3800, follow the steps below:
1. Remove the front panel of the M3800.
2. Unscrew the thumbscrews which are securing the hard drive rails.
3. Remove the hard drive rails and install them to your SATA hard disk(s).
4. Slide hard disks into the M3800 until they snap into place.
5. Replace the thumbscrews.
6. Replace the M3800 front cover.
NOTE
If your HDD was part of a RAID 1 or 5 array previously, it automatically rebuilds. If
you replace all the drives with higher capacity drives, you need to go to
Administrator login and format the drives.
