Inserting a Drive

Important:

To avoid electrostatic discharge (ESD) problems, ground yourself by

touching metal before handling the device.

Preparing a Drive

The My Cloud EX2 comes with a bag holding the screws, tabs, and labels needed for
inserting the new drive. For WD replacement drives, you can reuse the parts attached to the
faulty drive.

Note:

A standard phillips-head screwdriver is all you need..

1. Using a screw from the bag, attach a plastic tab to the top hole in the drive’s side (on the

right if the green board is facing you).

2. Attach a screw to the corresponding hole on the other side of the drive.

3. Attach label 1 or 2 to the top of the drive. Label 1 is on the left and label 2 is on the right,

when looking down on the top of the unit. There are corresponding numbers on the
cross brace label.
