SG6060: Install 60-drive shelves into cabinet or rack
You must install a set of rails for the E2860 controller shelf in your cabinet or rack, and
then slide the controller shelf onto the rails. If you are installing 60-drive expansion
shelves, the same procedure applies.
What you'll need
• You have reviewed the Safety Notices document included in the box, and understand the precautions for
moving and installing hardware.
• You have the instructions packaged with the rail kit.
Each 60-drive shelf weighs approximately 132 lb (60 kg) without drives installed. Four people or
a mechanized lift are required to safely move the shelf.
To avoid damaging the hardware, never move the shelf if drives are installed. You must remove
all drives before moving the shelf.
When installing the E2860 controller shelf or optional expansion shelves, install hardware from
the bottom to the top of the rack or cabinet to prevent the equipment from tipping over. To
ensure that the heaviest equipment is at the bottom of the cabinet or rack, install the SG6000-
CN controller above the E2860 controller shelf and expansion shelves.
Before committing to the installation, verify that the 0.5m optic cables shipped with the
appliance, or cables that you supply, are long enough for the planned layout.
