Install Drive Enclosure Rails

Prior to adding Drive Enclosures, install rails into the rack for each Drive Enclosure that you plan to add.

Prerequisites:
  • Before handling a component, touch a grounded surface to discharge any static electricity.

  • Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) wrist strap to your wrist, and stand on an ESD mat while replacing components.

  • Ensure that you have a Phillips Number 2 screwdriver with at least a 4-inch shaft.

  • If you are installing the rails in a rack with threaded holes, make sure you have a Torx Number 20 screwdriver.

  • Ensure that you have a flashlight to use when verifying that the Drive Enclosure is seated in the rack.
