Figure D-1: Removing the Fan Bracket from the Carrier

The DE100i-SWC160 drive carrier contains one (1) front-mounted drive carrier fan for en-

hanced heat dissipation. Should the fan ever fail, the unit ID number indicator (located on the

front of the receiving frame) will display a flashing "F" and an audible alarm will sound. Refer

to section "Receiving Frame (Front)" in the Introduction for further information.

In the case of failure, the fan is easily field-replaceable as outlined in the steps below.

NOTE:

A #2 Phillips screwdriver will be required during this procedure.

While performing steps in this section, work on a soft surface to prevent excessive

shock to the drive and carrier.
