The drive carrier accommodates 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch drives, with or without a SAS-to-SATA adapter.

Cautions

Swing open the drive carrier handle before you insert the drive

carrier into the enclosure.
To avoid hand contact with an electrical hazard, remove only one

drive carrier a time.

Important

SATA drives require a SAS-to-SATA adapter, available from PROMISE

Technology at http://www.promise.com
SAS drives do not require adapters.

1. Press the drive carrier release button. The handle springs open.

2. Grasp the handle and gently pull the empty drive carrier out of the enclosure.

3. If you are installing SATA drives, attach a SAS-to-SATA adapter onto the power and data connectors of

each drive.

4. Carefully lay the drive into the carrier with the power and data connectors facing away from the carrier

handle.
