Install Drives Into Drive Trays

1. Pull a drive tray out of its packaging, and then using wire

cutters, cut off the shipping support between the drive tray rails
(Figure 8). Be sure to cut the plastic flush; do not leave a rough
cut (Figure 9)
.

2. Repeat step 1 with each remaining drive tray.

3. Remove a SATA drive from its packaging and set it on edge on

a flat, level surface with the label facing away from you and the
connectors to the right. Open the supplied tube of threadlocker
and apply a single drop inside each of the three screw holes on
the side of the drive

(Figure 10).

WARNING:

When handling computer products, take care to

prevent components from being damaged by static electricity;

avoid working in carpeted areas. Handle hard drives only by their
edges and avoid touching connector traces and component pins.

WARNING:

If you do not cut off the edges of the shipping

support flush with the drive tray rails, the drive tray will not fit

properly in the enclosure, and the storage system may not work
reliably.
