5.5.2 Installing Drives
This section provides steps on how to install drives into the enclosure. The enclosure is shipped with a
minimum of 60 HDDs and may require HDDs to be moved to other drives slots if SSDs are being installed.
Before beginning the process of adding drives, refer to the
section to determine what configuration will be used and what is required of that configuration.
Step 1 : Grasp both handles at the front of the enclosure and pull with even pressure to extend the
chassis out of the rack until it is stopped by the safety latches. The safety latches will prevent
the enclosure from coming out of the rack completely and the cover will remain in the rack
attached to the rear alignment brackets.
