7.6 Installing an Internal Hard Disk
Unit
This section explains how to install internal hard disk units.
• Turn off the server and peripheral devices, and unplug the power cables.
Failure to do so may cause electric shock ("1.4.3 Turning Off the Server"
(pg.33)).
In the array system configuration (RAID1/5/10), the 3.5-inch internal option can
be replaced without turning the power off.
• Rough handling of the hard disk unit can damage the stored data. To cope with
any unexpected problems, always back up important data. When backing up
data to another hard disk unit, you should make backups on a file or block
basis.
• Use the unit in a dry place with low airborne dust levels.
• Take great care so that you do not hit the hard disk or bring it into contact with
metallic objects.
• The circuit boards and soldered parts of internal options are exposed. They
can be damaged by static electricity.
Before handling them, first touch a metal part of the server to discharge static
electricity.
• Do not touch the circuitry on boards or soldered parts. Hold the metallic parts
or the edges of the circuit boards.
• Use the device on a shock-and-vibration free surface.
• Keep the device away from direct sunlight, radiators or other heat sources.
• Do not use the unit in a place where the temperature is extremely high or low,
or experiences extreme temperature changes.
• Do not disassemble the hard disk unit.
