Installation
Safety measures
Static electricity discharges can damage computer
components and electronic circuit boards. Working on
computers that are still connected to a power supply can
be extremely dangerous. Follow these guidelines to avoid
self-injury and damage to the computer:
Always disconnect the Storage Carrier from the power
outlet when working inside of the computer case.
If possible, wear a grounded wrist strap when working
inside the computer case. Alternatively, discharge any
static electricity by touching the bare metal chassis
of the computer case, or the bare metal body of any other
grounded appliance.
Hold electronic circuit boards only by the edges. 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 ready to use the component for the installation.
Identifying the contents of
the Storage Carrier shipping
carton
Unpack the server shipping carton and locate the materials
for installing the server.
The contents of the server shipping carton include:
Storage carrier
Power cord
Rack-mounting hardware
In addition to the supplied items, you might need:

Installing the Hard Disk Drive
CAUTION!
Before powering on the server, check that each HDD is
installed and ensure empty slots contain an HDD carrier.
1. Align the HDD module with the connector on the HDD
backplane.
2. Install the HDD module.
3. Gently press down on both ends of the HDD to ensure it
is seated in the HDD backplane.
4. Push the HDD tray handle closed.
Verify that the drive is fully seated.
