Attach the drive activity LED cables to the appropriate drive pins. Refer to the

device manufacturer's documentation for the location of these pins.

Install the drive(s) into the drive mounting bracket using four (4) 6-32 x 1/4" screws

(Figure 11). Do not fully tighten the screws on removable media devices.

NOTE: Do not fully tighten the screws that fasten removable media devices into the

drive mounting bracket at this point. The screws will be tightened after the
drive bezel clearance has been checked with the DS50 bezel clearance.

7. After the drive(s) have been positioned into the mounting bracket, carefully insert

the bracket back into the Data Silo chassis. Be careful that no cables are pinched.
Position the screws on the bottom of the mounting bracket through the slots on the
bottom of the Data Silo chassis so that the bracket can slide freely. Do not tighten
the drive mounting bracket screws at this point.

8. Slide the drive mounting bracket as far as it will go toward the front of the Data Silo

chassis to allow access for attaching cables at the rear of the Data Silo.

9. Connect the I/O interface cable(s) to the drive(s). Verify that the pin 1 indicator on

the cable is properly aligned. Refer to the drive manufacturer's documentation for
more information.

10. Connect the 4-pin DC power cable(s) from the Data Silo to the drive(s).

11. Connect the ID select cable to the ID select interface connector on the rear panel of

the Data Silo as shown in Figures 6 and 7.

NOTE: Use the provided tie wraps included in the installation kit to prevent the power

and ID select cables from possible fan contact.

12. If necessary, reinstall the Data Silo cover to check for proper drive bezel/cover

alignment and make any necessary adjustments.

NOTE: Fixed media devices should be mounted rearward in the mounting bracket to

allow sufficient bezel clearance, while removable media drives should be
mounted forward in the bracket so that the drive bezel aligns with the DS50
bezel (Figure 12).

13. Tighten the screws that fasten any removable media device(s) into the mounting

bracket.

14. Tighten the screws that fasten the drive mounting bracket to the chassis.

16. Reinstall the Data Silo cover and fasten all screws.

17. Connect the power cable to the Data Silo and turn on the power switch. Should

there be any unusual sound, turn the Data Silo off immediately, disconnect the
power cable, and remove the cover to locate the source of the problem. Verify that
the power and ID select cables are securely fastened with the provided tie wraps
and are not contacting the fan. Replace the cover.
