Choosing an Orientation
(Vertical or Horizontal)
The AcomData 2163 Drive
Enclosure can be placed on
your desktop in either the ver-
tical or horizontal position.
Do not place the 2163 on your desk in any way other than
what is described in this guide or it may get damaged.

Vertical Placement

Most likely, your 2163 Drive Enclosure was packaged with
the zinc alloy stand attached. However, if the stand was not
already attached, follow the steps below:
1. If the screws and nuts are not already affixed to the stand,
insert the two screws through the two holes from the
underside of the stand. Screw a nut onto the end of each
screw just far enough to hold the nut to the screw. Do
not tighten the nuts.
