CARE OF YOUR FUJITSU DRIVE
Careful handling and installation of your disk drive is paramount to the longevity of the unit. The internal mechanism of the drive can be
seriously damaged if the casing is subjected to forces outside the environmental specifications. When transporting the drive, always use the
original packing in which the drive was delivered to you, and avoid exposing the drive to extreme changes in temperature to minimize the
risk of condensation.
Handling
1. Never drop the unit. Handle it with care.
2. Never move the disk drive while disks are spinning. Note that the disks spin when the drive is powered on and also immediately after
power off. Refer to the Start/Stop specification for your drive.
3. Never place the drive in the vicinity of equipment giving off strong magnetic fields, such as monitors, televisions, or loudspeakers.
4. Never use any cleaning agents or liquids on the drive.
5. Always use an antistatic mat and wrist strap when handling the drive. Hold the drive by the base casting and never touch the components
on the printed circuit board.
6. Never remove any labels from the drive or deface them in any way.
7. Never open the disk enclosure for any reason. Doing so will void any warranties.
8. Always pay close attention to the mounting specifications such as those for sway space and cooling. If the temperature difference
between the storage location and installation location exceeds 10°C, for temperature acclimation purposes, leave the drive in the new
location for at least two hours before turning it on. This minimizes any risk of condensation forming on the drive.
The Drive needs NO preventative or periodic maintenance during its service life if properly used in an appropriate environment.
INSTALLATION
1. ORIENTATION
The drive can be installed flat on any of its six sides. Inclination from a vertical or horizontal plane should not exceed 5°.
2. MOUNTING SCREW INSTALLATION
When the mounting screw holes on the side of the drive are used, be sure to use the two pairs of outer holes. Do not use the center hole in
conjunction with only one of the outer holes. The screws must not penetrate the drive by more than 5.0 millimeters. Impact caused by the
electric driver must be within the device specifications.
3. COOLING
Allow space above and below the drive to provide an adequate air flow. Fan cooling is recommended. The disk enclosure temperature
measured at center of base cover (label side) should never exceed 60 °C. See Table 1.
Table 1. Reference value of airflow
Environmental temperature Required velocity of airflow
30
°C > 0.3 m/s
35
°C > 0.6 m/s
40
°C > 0.9 m/s
45
°C > 1.5 m/s
4. BREATHING
Never cover the vent hole displayed on the label with the arrow.
5. CONNECTING
To avoid potential damage to the drive, make sure that connector type and orientation is correct.
CAUTION: Your warranty may be voided if the connector is damaged as a result of incorrect insertion.
