Installing enclosure top covers

Populating drive slots
The Exos E 4U106 does not ship with pre-installed drive modules. When installing drive modules, be mindful of the slot
numbering shown in
. The following rules apply when populating the 4U106 with drives possessing 12 watts
maximum drive operating power per slot.
•
Populate the drive slots in the enclosure front to back—filling an entire lateral bay (e.g. drives 0–11)—before
populating the next bay (e.g. drives 12–23), and so on.
•
When rack-mounting a 4U106 enclosure, install the drives after the enclosure is installed into the rack.
NOTE:
A row can be skipped during loading, except the first row (Drive slot 0 to Drive slot 11). However, once you start
to fill a row ensure that you fill it completely.
•
When rack-mounting a 4U106 enclosure, install the drives after the enclosure is installed in the rack.
•
Populate drive slots 96–105 at any time during the sequence, as they are cooled separately within the enclosure.
