be
populated
with
at

two
drives.
If

least
two
drives
are
not
installed
in
each
attached
storage
expansion
enclosure,
when
you
power
on
the
DS4500
and
its
attached
storage
expansion
enclosure(s),
your
standard
storage
partition
key
might
be
lost

In
addition,
the
resulting
insufficient
load
to
the
enclosure
power
supplies
might
cause
them
to
intermittently
appear
as
failed,
falsely
indicating
the
power
supplies
are
bad.
All
drives
in
the
connected
storage
expansion
enclosure(s)
must
contain
no
prior
configuration
data.
