Drive Installation and Enclosure Setup

Support Note:

Save the shims! If you intend to transport the

Fusion enclosure in such a way that it will be subject to vibration,

you must reinsert the shims under the bottom of the drive modules in
order to prevent them from moving during transport.

Support Note:

It is possible that the drive modules may have

shifted during shipping. To ensure good connections between

the drives and their connectors, remove and reinstall each drive module
before powering on the enclosure.

WARNING:

When inserting the drive trays into the enclosure,

do not force the lever closed. If the lever does not close

easily, remove and reinsert the tray, and then push the lever in again.
