Installation Procedures
2.1.3.2 Disk-Drive Installation
To install a hard-disk drive,
1. Make sure the latch handle of the drive to be installed is in the open position.
2. Properly orient the new drive and insert it into the vacant drive slot. If the
drive cannot be inserted into the slot, rotate it 180 degrees (it is impossible to
install the drive incorrectly into its slot).
3. Push the drive toward the rear (DO NOT CLOSE the latch handle while push-
ing) until the drive is flush with the front of the chassis. The handle will swing
closed when it comes into contact with the RES-12DCX chassis.
4. When the drive is fully inserted into its slot, push the latch handle closed and
secure the captive screw to the chassis.
Caution: When in the closed position, the latch handle secures the drive to the
chassis. If the handle is closed before the drive is fully inserted, the latch mechanism
may not fully engage to secure the drive.
