Install all of the drive carriers into the VessRAID enclosure to ensure proper
airflow, even if you do not populate all the carriers with disk drives.
Installing Your Disk Drives
To install your disk drives:
1.
Remove a disk drive carrier.
2.
Carefully lay the disk drive into the drive carrier at the front, so that the screw
holes on the sides line up.
See page 19, Figure 8.
3.
Insert the screws through the holes in the drive carrier and into the sides of
the disk drive.
•
Install only the counter-sink screws supplied with the VessRAID.
•
Install four screws per drive.
•
Snug each screw. Be careful not to over-tighten.
4.
Reinstall the drive carrier into the VessRAID enclosure.
Repeat steps 1 through 3 until all of your disk drives are installed.
