Installing Devices

1
Planning Device Installation Positions
Before the planning, you need to calculate the required cabinet space, as listed in the following table.
Installation Item
Required Space
Remarks: The total of the required cabinet space can be calculated through the following formula: 4U + 2U
x (number of 2U disk enclosures) + 2U.
Based on the calculated cabinet space, you can plan the installation positions of the controller enclosure, disk
enclosures, and cable rack for the convenience of the installation and expansion.
2
Removing Filler Panels
If the planned device installation positions
are occupied by filler panels, remove them in
the method shown in Figure 1.
After removing the filler panels, remove
floating nuts in the method shown in Figure 2.
If you do not have a floating nut mount bar,
you can use a flat-head screwdriver instead.
When using a flat-head screwdriver to
remove the floating nuts, handle it gently;
otherwise, the flat-head screwdriver may skid,
and thus injure the hands or storage devices.
