Installing Hard Drives

Installing up to seven (7) hard drives into your 7- Slot chassis, or four (4) in your 13-Slot Chassis, is simple using one or two optional Drive Cages (PN: RDRIVECAGE), available from Magma. Each cage can hold up to four (4) 3.5” hard drives. The cages mount into the hard drive area in the chassis

identified by a in the previous graphic. If you want to install a hard drive in your system, a PCI hard drive controller card must also be installed into one of the available PCI slots.

You will also have to remove a 5V Load Resistor from the hard drive area before installing any hard drive cages. Instructions for removing the 5V Load Resistor are included with the hard drive cage.

DANGER

The Load Resistor is and must NOT BE TOUCHED unless the system has been shut off for at least 25- 30 minutes. Use caution when touching the Load Resistor.

System Should BeUpand Running
