Step 7: Install Filler Panels Caution Every slot must contain a filler or active component for proper operation.
Step 8: Connect SCSI and Power Cables Note Caution Do not attach the second end of the SCSI cable to another disk system or to another port on the same disk system.
Step 9: Install Disk Modules Caution Touching exposed areas on the disk can cause electrical discharge and disable the disk. Be sure you are grounded and be careful not to touch exposed circuits.
Page 72
Caution Disks are fragile. Handle carefully. Be careful to grasp the disk module by its handle and avoid touching exposed circuits Note Caution Every slot must contain either a disk module or filler.
Step 10: Turn on the Disk System Caution When starting up the disk system, do not override automatic spin-up by issuing SCSI start commands to the disk drives. Doing so could cause an overcurrent fault, requiring a power cycle to recover. Note...

REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT Disk Module Bus Control Card Power Supply Disk System Door Top Cover (HP-Qualified Only) Backplane/Mezzanine (HP-Qualified Only) Caution Do not remove fillers or hot-pluggable components until you are ready to install the replacement parts. An empty slot will cause uneven cooling and eventual overheating.
Page 111
Caution To prevent damage from static electricity, follow standard ESD procedures and avoid touching exposed circuitry. Do not remove a disk module or filler from an operating product until you have the replacement part and are ready to install it. An empty slot will cause uneven cooling and eventual overheating.
Page 112
Caution Spinning disks generate heat and gyratory force. Wait for a spinning disk to slow down and cool off before completely removing the module from the disk system. WARNING High current available: Avoid touching the backplane or adjacent disk electronics when removing and inserting disk modules. Caution If the disk module will be reused, place it on a static mat or other ESD- protected surface.
Page 113
Caution Follow standard ESD procedures and avoid touching exposed circuitry. Touching the disk circuit board can cause high energy discharge and permanently damage the disk. Disks are fragile. Handle carefully.

Caution Do not remove a fan from an operating product until you have the replacement fan and are ready to install it. An empty slot will cause uneven cooling and eventual overheating.
Power Supply Caution Do not remove a power supply from an operating product until you have the replacement and are ready to install it. An empty slot will cause uneven cooling and eventual overheating. Power supply may be hot to touch.
Disk System Caution Do not move the disk system with disk modules installed and power on. Even a 1-inch drop of the disk system can damage spinning disks.
