Unpacking the System
The Xserve RAID system is shipped in special packaging to facilitate simple and safe removal
from the carton. As noted previously, always work with a second person to lift or move the
system.
Follow the steps below to open the carton and remove the system from its packaging.
1 Locate a sturdy table, cart, or other flat surface on which to place the system.
The destination surface should be as close as possible to the system’s carton.
2 With one person on each side of the carton, remove the four packing clips on each side of
the carton by pulling the plastic tab at the end of each packing clip, then removing it from
the carton.
3 Cut the tape at the bottom of the carton.
4 Lift off the top section of the carton and set it aside.
The system is in the lower part of the carton, beneath two smaller boxes.
Do not cut
open the top
of the box.
The entire top
comes off as
a single piece.
Cut the tape
that is on both
sides on the
bottom of the box.
Remove the four plastic packing clips by
snapping them open and pulling them out.
