18 18GB Disk Drive Upgrade
Installing Disk Drives (SCSI Cable Pre-installed)
The procedures in this section describe how to install the 18GB disk drive upgrade
in Profile systems that do not require the SCSI cable installation. Refer to Table 1
on page 14 to determine if you need to install the SCSI cable in your system.
If you are also adding the Slave EDR Upgrade to your system, do that first before
performing the procedures in this section.
The procedures in this section include:
• Removing the Top-Front Cover
• Installing Disk Drives
• Reassembling the Profile System
• Creating the Disk File System
You can perform this upgrade with the Profile chassis extended on the rack slides
if the equipment rack is adequately mounted to prevent tipping, and if there is
sufficient slack in the cables connected to the rear panel to allow the chassis to
fully extend on the slides.
If it is necessary for you to remove the Profile chassis from the equipment rack to
perform this installation, refer to the Profile Installation Manual for instructions
on removing the Profile system from the rack. Observe the following warnings:
WARNING: To prevent injury, two people are required to lift the Profile
system. The Profile system is too heavy for one person to remove from the
rack.
WARNING: To prevent injury, insure that the rack is anchored to the floor
so that it cannot tip over when the Profile Video File Server is extended out
of the rack.
Once you have gained access to the Profile system chassis covers, proceed to the
next procedure, “Removing the Top-Front Cover”.
