Cabling The Server; Fastserve | Playout Server Connection Information - Avid Technology FastServe Playout Setup Manual

n
When you are installing drives in the Avid FastServe | Playout server, begin the installation at the
bottom of a column of drives. Make sure the first drive you install is level and flat as you insert it into
the server.
c
Do not force a drive into a slot. If you are having problems installing a drive, check to make
sure it is level and flat as you insert it into the server, that the drive carrier latch is open and at
a 45 degree angle to the drive carrier, and that the LEDs are on the bottom of the drive carrier.
5. Slide the drive into the open drive slot in the server until it stops. Approximately 1/2 inch of the
drive carrier should be outside the server.
6. Push the handle into the drive carrier. This seats the drive in the server. You'll hear a click when
the drive is fully seated and the handle latches in place.
7. Repeat steps 2 to 6 for the remaining drives.
