CHAPTER 2—INSTALLING THE NTIER700
The following sections update the information in this chapter.
Install in a Restricted Access Location
The nTier700 chassis serves as a protective enclosure when the blades are
in their normal operating position. Pulling the blades out to service the
drives opens the protective enclosure. When installing the nTier700, make
sure that it is only accessible to users who are aware of possible safety risks
when the blades are extended.
Do not operate the nTier700 with the blades pulled out of the enclosure
except when servicing the drives. If you pull a blade out from the
enclosure:
do not allow conductive objects to contact the circuit board and
connector that are exposed when a drive is removed (to prevent
potential risk of heat and fire associated with high energy short
circuits).
make sure you slide the blade completely into the enclosure as soon as
you are finished.

Important
Before moving or shipping the nTier700, remove all of the data drives from the
chassis and carefully pack them in their original shipping box to prevent damage to
the drives.
