Installing the Storage Enclosure
Installing into a Tower Assembly
Caution:
Do not
modify the tower assembly. The feet are
designed to keep the tower from tipping over. Do not remove
the acoustic foam inside the tower skin assembly.
1
If the Storage Enclosure is already set up and running, shut
down the enclosure and remove all cables and power cords.
You can remove all the drive carriers and both APCs to reduce
the weight of the enclosure, if required.
If the enclosure is in an equipment rack,
remove the two screws holding it in place at
the front, then slide the enclosure out of the
rack. Remove both the right and left rack
mount ear plastic covers (shown at right), as
they are no longer needed. (They can be
removed by pressing on the plastic inserts
from the backside of the rack mount ear or
pried off with a screwdriver).
2
Unpack the tower and inspect it for shipping damage.
Do not
install the enclosure into a damaged or bent tower assembly.
3
Remove the tower’s front bezel, as shown in
the screws for use in
Figure 2-5 Removing the Tower’s Front Bezel
4
Turn the enclosure 90° so that the right hand rack mount ear
and LEDs are on top.
