5. Build Up Procedures
1. Place the NA333TB chassis on a level surface on a stable table.
2. Open the chassis by removing the cover.
3. Three PCIe slots on rear panel of NA333TB are covered by
removable L-shape metal brackets. Loosen the screw of the
removable L-shape metal bracket, and then it will be ready for the
installation of the PCIe card.
4. Place one PCIe SAS/SATA RAID controller card (HBA) and other
PCIe cards into proper PCIe slots of NA333TB and tighten them
with screws on the brackets of the PCIe cards.
5. Connect all mini-SAS to mini-SAS cables between RAID HBA and
backplane. Connect the first (topmost) mini-SAS connector on
backplane to Channel 1~4 mini-SAS connector on RAID HBA,
the second to Channel 5~8 mini-SAS connector on HBA, the third
to Channel 9~12 mini-SAS connector on HBA, and the fourth to
Channel 13~16 mini-SAS connector on HBA.
6. Close the chassis and immobilize it on the server rack or other
proper place.
7. Connect the chassis and the HOST with Thunderbolt TM
cable, and then connect the chassis with power source.
8. Take out all the HDD trays.
9. Place all HDDs in the trays and fix them with Hard Drive
mounting screws. Put them back to NA333TB.
