Quick Start

Welcome to the Quick Start guide for your Silent Cubes long-term 
storage system! This guide will lead you through the installation steps 
for your new head unit and storage unit(s). 

The following will explain how to connect the Silent Cubes head unit 
to the Silent Cube and then connect everything to your intranet. After 
the last installation step of this Quick Start guide, you will have made 
all the settings necessary to back up data to your Silent Cubes 
archiving system for the first time. 

This Quick Start guide takes you through the installation process 
using the example of a standalone system of one Silent Cubes 
storage unit connected to a DHCP network. Of course, you can also 
install Silent Cubes into a rack and operate the storage system with 
multiple head units and Silent Cubes as needed. 

For a detailed description of all the features of the Silent Cubes long-
term storage system as well as all the user interface settings, please 
refer to your user manual.
