Figure 7: Inserting the locking nuts
Installing the disk enclosure
The base storage disks should be left in the disk enclosure, but do not add any further expansion disks (if
purchased) until the disk enclosure has been installed.
CAUTION:
If your system has been delivered with further expansion disks loaded, assess the total weight. If
any enclosure expansions are included with the order of the base server and first disk enclosure,
the additional expansions will be configured as well. Make sure that the HDDs are labelled correctly
for when they are replaced after racking.
• Drawer one (left): Two spare hot disks in bays 34 and 35 and eleven disks in bays 23-33
• Drawer two (right): Two spare hot disks in bays 34 and 35
Procedure
1.
Holding the handles (1), lift the disk enclosure onto the rack and push it into position (2). Tighten the
thumbscrews (3) to secure the unit to the rack.
WARNING:
Always use at least two people to lift an enclosure into the rack. If the enclosure is being loaded
into the rack above chest level, a third person must assist with aligning the enclosure with the
rails while the other two people support the weight of the enclosure.
