DATA EXPRESS® DE300i-SWC160 INTRODUCTION

PackagingInformation

The StorCase Technology Data Express® system is shipped in a container designed to provide
protection and prevent damage during shipment. The Data Express unit was carefully
inspected before and during the packing procedure at the factory. Bent or broken connectors,
or evidence of other damage to the Data Express should be reported to the shipper immediately.
Refer to Figure 1 for the package contents.

If the wrong Data Express model has been received, please call your reseller or StorCase at
[phone] to arrange for a Return Material Authorization (RMA). StorCase cannot accept
returns which do not display an RMA number on the outside of the package. Return the unit
with all the original packing materials.

touching a properly grounded metal object.
