Fastening a disk to the drive tray:
1. Find a suitable work area with adequate space and
a flat, even surface.
2. Locate the empty 5big drive tray and four drive
tray screws included in your packaging. Do not
fasten a disk to a 5big enclosure drive tray with
alternative screws. Doing so may damage the
drive tray as well as your non-LaCie disk. Make
certain that your non-LaCie 3.5" SATA II disk and a
Phillips head screwdriver are within reach as well.
Please confirm that the head of the screwdriver is
the proper size for the drive tray screws provided
by LaCie.
3. Place the empty drive tray onto the flat work area.
The handle should be on the bottom left, with the
lock icon pointing away from you (Fig. 09).
4. Many disks have a label on one side and the
printed circuit board on the opposite side. With
its label side facing up, gently place the hard disk
within the drive tray (Fig. 10). Keep the side with
the printed circuit board on the work space and
the SATA connector facing to the right. The four
tray screw slots should align with the disk's four
screw holes.
5. Using the Phillips head screwdriver, carefully
fasten all four screws into their slots. Do not overly
tighten the screws. Doing so may negatively affect
the integrity of the screw holes on the drive as well
as the threads on the screws (Fig. 11).
6. Go to 1.8 Removing and Installing Disks for details
on inserting the disk tray into the 5big enclosure.
Once you have completed the steps in 2. Initial
Setup, review the Technical Brief on RAID for
instructions on configuring disks using Windows
Storage Server 2008.
