Step 8: 

Cable the CMA(s).

a.  Unlatch the elbow side of the arm(s) by pressing the blue button 

labeled “push,” and then swing the arm(s) open.

b.  Gather the SAS, power, and Ethernet cables for installation. Be-

fore cabling, note the following routing patterns for best results:

Step  9 : 

Now that  the chassis is installed, test the installation by sliding the 

enclosure in and out of the rack a minimum of three times. If the enclosure binds, 

catches, or displays any incorrect motion or behavior repeat the installation.

Step  10 : 

Grasp both handles at the front of the enclosure and pull with even 

pressure to extend the chassis out of the rack until it is stopped by the safety latches. 

The safety latches will prevent the enclosure from coming out of the rack completely 

and the cover will remain in the rack attached to the rear alignment brackets.

Step  11 : 

 Perform this same action two more times without the drives loaded to 

make sure the rail kits are installed properly.
