Unpacking A Rack System

WARNING: The weight of your system without the physical disks installed (empty weight) is 19.50
kg (43.0 lb) and when fully populated with all the physical disks is 105.20 kg (232.0 lb).

WARNING: Your system must be installed by Dell certified service technicians. For safe
installation of an empty system, a minimum of three service technicians are required. To install a
fully populated system, a mechanized lifting tool is required to position the system in a rack.

WARNING: Install the physical disks into the system only after installing the system in the rack.
Installing the system in the rack with the physical disks installed can damage the disks or cause
injury.

CAUTION: Before installing your system in the rack, ensure that the weight of the system does
not exceed the rack's weight limit. For more information, see the Rack Installation Instructions
