Choosing a place for your PlatinumRAID
When selecting a place to set up your Disk Array, be sure to follow these guidelines:
• Place on a flat and stable surface capable of supporting at least 25lbs
• Place the Disk Array close enough to the computer for the SCSI or FireWire 800 cable to reach.
• Use a grounded wall outlet.
• Avoid an electrical outlet controlled by wall switches or automatic timers. Accidental disruption
of the power source may wipe out data in the memory of your computer or Disk Array.
• Keep the entire system away from potential sources of electromagnetic interference, such
as loudspeakers , cordless telephones, etc.
CAUTION! Avoid direct sunlight, excessive heat, moisture, or dust
