Placement Tips
•
Ambient Temperature
—To prevent the device from overheating, do not
operate it in an area that exceeds an ambient temperature of 104°F (40°C).
•
Air Flow
—Be sure that there is adequate air flow around the device. Avoid
any obstructions to air flow either in front of or behind the chassis.
•
Mechanical Loading
—Be sure that the device is level and stable to avoid
any hazardous conditions. Do not place any other devices on top of the
NAS.
•
Vibration/Impacts
—Be sure that the device is installed in a location where
it will not be subject to vibration or impact because this can cause a
mechanical shock and premature drive failures.
