.before applying power

Provide a suitable power source with electrical overload protection to meet the requirements laid down in the

.technical specification

Never expose your device to rain, or use it near water, or in damp or wet conditions. Never place objects

containing liquids on the enclosure, as they may spill into its openings. Doing so increases the risk of electrical

.shock, short-circuiting, fire, or personal injury

Always unplug the device from the electrical outlet if there is a risk of lightning or if it will be unused for an

.extended period of time. Otherwise, there is an increased risk of electrical shock, short-circuiting, or fire

Hard Drive Maintenance

The Seagate WSS NAS 2-Bay | 4-Bay | 6-Bay is a desktop hard drive enclosure. Review the details below for

.hard drive tray locations and, where applicable, replacement

Precauons

The hard drives for the Seagate WSS NAS 2-Bay | 4-Bay | 6-Bay are hot swappable. However, performing

other types of hardware maintenance within the enclosure is not supported and can void your product’s

.warranty

During operation, all provided hardware (including the hard drives in their frames) should remain in place for

.optimal airflow

.Observe all conventional ESD precautions when handling the NAS’s parts

.Avoid contact with backplane components and connectors

Never remove the WSS NAS’s enclosure cover. Potential hazards of opening the cover while the product is

operating include, but are not limited to, rotating fans and hot surfaces. Removing the cover can void your

.product’s warranty

Adding/replacing a hard drive

:Follow the instructions below to perform one of the following

.Insert a new hard drive into an empty bay

.Expand storage space with a higher-capacity hard drive

.Replace a failed hard drive

Hard drives in protected volumes are hot swappable. However, it is not possible to hot-swap more than one

hard drive at a time. If you are replacing more than one hard drive in a volume, wait for synchronization to

.successfully complete before moving to the next hard drive

Always confirm that the hard drive you are replacing can be removed without harming an array. For example,

you want to expand a hard drive from 2TB to 3TB. You know that the 2TB hard drive is part of a RAID 5 array

composed of four hard drives. You will lose data if you remove the 2TB hard drive and another hard drive in the array has failed. Therefore, use Windows Storage Server 2012 R2 Essentials to check the health of all the hard drives in the RAID array. In this example, you can replace the 2TB hard drive if it is the only hard drive in

.the array that has failed and/or the other hard drives in the array are healthy

Important info: Refer to the product's Warranty before performing any hardware repairs or

.maintenance that is not described in this manual
