Safety Measures
Computer components and electronic circuit boards can be damaged by discharges of static electricity. Working on
computers that are still connected to a power supply can be extremely dangerous. Follow these guidelines to avoid
damage to the DNS 1640 or injury to yourself.
• Always disconnect power when carrying out work inside the unit.
• If possible, wear a grounded wrist strap when carrying out work inside the unit. Alternatively,
discharge any static electricity by touching the bare metal chassis of the unit case, or the bare
metal body of any other grounded appliance.
• Hold electronic circuit boards by the edges only. Do not touch the components on the board unless it is necessary to do so. Do not flex or stress the circuit board.
• Leave all components inside the static-proof packaging until you are ready to install the component.
Equipment Location
This equipment should only be accessed by SERVICE PERSONNEL or by USERS who have been instructed about
the reasons for the restrictions applied to the location. Access is through the use of a TOOL or lock and key, or
other means of security, and is controlled by the authority responsible for the location.

It is not recommend mixing different RPM SAS and SATA HDD in the same DNS-1640 system. If you have to,
please use the following figures below to plan where you will be placing the disk drives.
These figures represent fully-loaded DNS-1640 system with HDD.
However, the same guidelines apply even if you are f i l li ng some of the HDD slots with blank disk trays in the mix-

Important:
onfirm that there is adequate power at your facility to support the high-availability features of the system.
C
It is recommended to connect each power connector to separate power circui t.
If necessary refer to the documentations shipped with the 6Gb/s SAS HBA/RAID card for hardware and
driver installation instructions
There are different types of SAS Cables in the market, make sure you order the right one for DNS-1640.
For DNS-1640, it all uses SFF-8088 to SFF-8088 SAS Cable when connecting DNS-1640 to host and when
daisy chain to another DNS-1640.
SFF-8088 to SFF-8088 SAS Cable
Before you set up the DNS 1640 system, be sure your facility meets the following
conditions.
