LaCie 5big Storage Server quick start 5big Enclosure drive tray

Fastening a disk to the drive tray:

1.Find a suitable work area with adequate space and a flat, even surface.

2.Locate the empty 5big drive tray and four drive tray screws included in your packaging. Do not fasten a disk to a 5big enclosure drive tray with alternative screws. Doing so may damage the drive tray as well as your non-LaCie disk. Make certain that your non-LaCie 3.5” SATA II disk and a Phillips head screwdriver are within reach as well. Please confirm that the head of the screwdriver is the proper size for the drive tray screws provided by LaCie.

3.Place the empty drive tray onto the flat work area.

The handle should be on the bottom left, with the lock icon pointing away from you (Fig. 09).

4.Many disks have a label on one side and the printed circuit board on the opposite side. With its label side facing up, gently place the hard disk within the drive tray (Fig. 10). Keep the side with the printed circuit board on the work space and the SATA connector facing to the right. The four tray screw slots should align with the disk’s four screw holes.

5.Using the Phillips head screwdriver, carefully fasten all four screws into their slots. Do not overly tighten the screws. Doing so may negatively affect the integrity of the screw holes on the drive as well as the threads on the screws (Fig. 11).

6.Go to 1.8 Removing and Installing Disks for details on inserting the disk tray into the 5big enclosure. Once you have completed the steps in 2. Initial Setup, review the Technical Brief on RAID for instructions on configuring disks using Windows Storage Server 2008.
