AUTION
Possible loss of data access
– Never insert disk drives into an drive module
without first confirming the disk drive firmware level is compatible. Inserting
a disk drive with an incorrect firmware level can cause data loss or data
corruption. For information about supported disk drive firmware levels,
contact a Customer and Technical Support representative.

Possible loss of data access
– Magnetic fields will destroy all data on a disk
drive and cause irreparable damage to the disk drive circuitry. To avoid loss
of data access and damage to disk drives, always keep disk drives away from
magnetic devices.
I
MPORTANT
Install only disk drives specifically designed for your drive module, and
that have been tested and qualified by the factory.
C
AUTION
