Repackage Disk Drives and Cabinet

Use the original Intergraph packaging in which your equipment was shipped. The disk drive
box fits inside the shipping carton.
CAUTION Pack all equipment in the original boxes for transportation to avoid damage during shipment.
To repack the equipment:
1. Power down the disk array cabinet and wait for the RAID disk drives to completely stop
spinning. The disk drives could be damaged if removed while still spinning.
2. Remove all of the RAID disk drives from the cabinet. Handle the disk drives carefully
and by the edges only.
3. Place each disk drive into an antistatic bag and seal the bag.
4. Place one RAID disk drive into each compartment in the foam. If packing less than four
drives, place them in the foam to distribute the weight evenly. See the following figure.
