Before starting, take a few minutes to read this manual.

Read all of these instructions and save this manual for

later reference. 

Protect the disk array system from extremely high or low

temperatures. Let the disk array system warm (or cool) 

to room temperature before using it. 

Protect the disk array system from being bumped or 

dropped. Do not place the disk array system on an 

unstable cart, stand, or table. It may fall, causing serious

damage to the product.

Keep the disk array system away from magnetic forces. 

Do not use the disk array system near water.

Keep the disk array system away from dust, sand, or dirt. 

Gaps and openings in the cabinet are provided for venti-

lation. Never block or cover these openings, because

the disk array system may overheat and become unreli-

able. Don’t place the disk array system on a bed, sofa,

rug, or other similar surfaces. 
Do not place the disk array system near or over a radia-

tor or other heat sources.

Refer to the rating plate for the correct voltage and 

ensure that the appliance voltage corresponds to the 

supply voltage.
