Chapter 3 Install Components
Install a Slammer Storage Controller
Install the Slammers above the Pilot near the bottom of the rack.
Required tools:
● Torx T20 screw driver
● Antistatic wrist strap
Caution
Warning
1 Put on an antistatic wrist strap, ground strap, or heel strap and attach the
grounding wire to ground.
2 From the front side of the rack, set the back of the Slammer onto the
mounting rails and slide the Slammer into place.
Leave about one inch (2.5 centimeters) of clearance between the Slammer
ears and the vertical channels.
Important! When sliding the Slammer into the rack, keep the Slammer level
to avoid bending the rail supports, which would cause difficulty when
inserting a component below.
Install a Slammer Storage Controller
A Slammer weighs 94 pounds (42.6 kilograms). For safe
handling, use two people to lift it.
Ensure that component distribution in the rack is balanced.
Follow the hardware placement map to ensure this balance.
Uneven distribution can cause hazardous instability. The
rack must have stabilization plates or anti-tip brackets
installed so the rack does not tip when you install a
component.
