Safety considerations
Observe the following guidelines to ensure safety when replacing parts.
Failure to follow these guidelines could result in bodily injury or damage to
the chassis or components.
• Use the host to back up user data on the storage system before replacing
components.
• When performing any installation, comply with all local health and safety
requirements.
• Wear protective footwear when moving storage system hardware.
• Do not wear loose clothing that could get caught in the chassis or
mounting hardware. Fasten ties and scarves and roll up sleeves.
• Wear safety glasses when working under conditions that are hazardous to
your eyes.
• Keep walkways clear of tools, cables, and parts to prevent them from
being stepped on or causing people to trip and fall.
• Do not work on the equipment or disconnect cables during a
thunderstorm, when wearing a wool sweater or other heavy wool clothing,
or when power is applied.
• Always turn off the storage system and unplug all data and power cables
before lifting the storage system.
• Keep floors dry to prevent slips and falls.
• Do not use ungrounded power cables.
• Use only the power cables supplied with this product. Do not use power
cables from other products. Otherwise, unexpected failures or accidents
can occur.
• If you encounter unusual odors, heat generation, or smoke emission, shut
off power to the equipment and inform the appropriate personnel Leaving
such conditions unattended can cause electric shock or fire.
• Keep the area clean and dust-free when replacing components.
• Do not block or cover the openings of the storage system hardware. Never
place a unit near a radiator or heat register. Failure to follow these
guidelines can cause overheating and affect the unit’s reliability.
• After a component is replaced, secure the chassis cover to the storage
system. Cooling air flow can effectively within the chassis. An open chassis
allows air leaks that might interrupt and redirect the flow of cooling air
from internal components.
• Do not make mechanical or electrical modifications or repairs to the
equipment. Such actions can cause an electric shock or cause the storage
system to malfunction. Hitachi is not responsible for regulatory compliance
of a modified Hitachi product.
• When removing cables, hold the cable connector and leave enough slack in
the cables, so they do not bend to a diameter of less than 76 mm (3") or a
