IMPORTANT:
When more than one PSU is fitted, all power cords must be connected to at least two
separate and independent power supplies to ensure redundancy. When the storage system is ready
for operation, ensure that each PSU power switch is set to the On position.
CAUTION: Power connection concerns:
• Always remove the power connections before you remove the PSU from the chassis.
• When bifurcated power cords (Y leads) are used, these cords must only be connected to a supply
range of 200–240V AC.
