Snap Expansion S50 Quick Start Guide

FCC Notification

Authorized Service

Only an authorized service representative can service the Server. Failure to 

comply with this requirement will void the warranty.

WARNING to Service Personnel

The Snap Expansion S50 has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a 

Class “A” digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are 

designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the 

equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, 

uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in 

accordance with the instruction manual, may cause interference to radio 

communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to 

cause harmful interference, in which case the user will be required to correct the 

interference at their own expense.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Overland Storage could 

void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Safety Precautions

Note  

The maximum current draw is printed on the label on the back of the 

storage subsystem.

Caution  

Before touching any enclosure components, ground yourself and take 

antistatic precautions. Overland Storage recommends that you use an antistatic 

wrist strap and a grounding wire as minimum precautions.

Environmental Conditions — 

Make sure the conditions of the environment in 

which the server resides fall within the specifications for your model.

Installing the Enclosure —

 During installation, make sure the enclosure is always 

placed on a surface capable of supporting its weight.

Connecting to the Main Power —

 Install the enclosure near an easily accessible 

power source. Make sure the power source is the proper voltage for your model. 

Place the power cord out of the way of traffic; do not place any object over the 

power cord. Each storage subsystem 

must

 have a good electrical ground 

connection through each power cord, through the building power grid to the 

point of origin for the building power source entry.
If the enclosure is taken offline for an extended period, disconnect it from the 

power source to avoid possible damage from a power surge.
