v When powered by multiple AC sources, disconnect all supply power for complete isolation. v In order to comply with applicable safety, emission, and thermal requirements, carry out the following precautions: – Do not remove any covers – Populate all rear bays with plug-in modules v The power connection should always be disconnected prior to insertion or removal of a power supply unit (PSU) from the enclosure.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions Fit and check a suitable anti-static wrist or ankle strap and observe all conventional ESD precautions when handling plug-in modules and components. Avoid contact with backplane components, module connectors, and other potential sources of ESD. Product rating Product rating information can also be found on the back of the PSUs.
Figure 2. Mounting the system into a rack (left rail only) 1. Ensure the pre-assembled rail is at its shortest length. 2. Locate the rail location pins inside the front of the rack and extend the length of the rail assembly to enable the rear location pins to locate.
Figure 3. Drive numbering for drawer 1 (top) Figure 4. Drive numbering for drawer 2 (bottom) Front and rear LEDs and modules The following figure shows the locations of LEDs on the front of the enclosure and the modules on the back.
Figure 5. LED locations Installing and removing disk drives in carriers (DDICs) Installing a DDIC To install a DDIC, complete the following steps: 1. Insert the DDIC into the slot, and then push it down until it stops, as shown in the following figure. Figure 6.
1. Slide the release button and the DDIC will pop up slightly from the slot, as shown in the following figure. Figure 7. Removing a DDIC 2. Lift the DDIC out of the slot. Installing and removing cooling modules, power supply units, and compute modules Observe proper safety precautions when replacing any of these modules.

Figure 9. Removing a cooling module (2) Install a cooling module Installation is the reverse of the removal process. Ensure that the retaining latch clicks into place. Remove a power supply unit (PSU) CAUTION: Do not remove covers from the PSU. Danger of electric shock inside. Return the PSU to your supplier for repair.
Figure 11. Removing a PSU (2) Install a PSU Installation is the reverse of the removal process. Ensure that the retaining latch clicks into place. Remove an SBB compute module Note: A variety of compute modules can be used in the enclosure. The following steps show a 6Gb/s SAS EBOD compute module but the procedure is the same for a SBB compute module.
Figure 13. Removing a module (2). (6Gb/s SAS EBOD module shown) Install an SBB compute module 1. Rotate the SBB compute module so that the release latch is at the bottom. 2. Open the release latch and rotate it to its most open position, as shown in the previous figure. 3.
