WARNING!
Hard drives and storage docks require careful handling, especially when
being transported. If you are not careful with your hard disk, lost data may result.
Always handle your hard drive and storage device with caution. Be sure that you
are properly grounded by wearing an anti-static strap when handling computer
components or discharge yourself of any static electricity build-up by touching a large
grounded metal surface (such as the computer case) for several seconds.
Hardware Installation
1. Ensure your computer system is powered down, and the power cable has been
disconnected from the Power Supply.
2. Open your computer case (refer to the computer user manual for details), and place
the 2.5in SATA/SAS HDD Backplane into the 3.5” slot, lining up the side installation
holes on the Backplane (pictured below), with installation holes on the 3. 5” slot
inside the computer.
3. Hold the Backplane into place, and fix the four included drive bay screws (black)
through the installation holes on the 3.5” bay, into the side installation holes on the
Backplane.
Notes:
• While only four mounting points are required (two on either side), six mounting
holes are available to accommodate different styles of computer cases.
• Installation steps may vary depending on your computer case, refer to the
computer case user manual for details.
