Installing a SAS Hard Drive Into a SATAu Drive Carrier

NOTE: SAS hard drives must be installed only in SATAu drive carriers. The SATAu drive carrier is labeled "SATAu" and also has marks indicating the SAS and SATA mounting screws.

1Insert the SAS hard drive into the hard-drive carrier with the connector end of the drive at the rear. See Figure 3-5.

2Viewing the assembly as shown in Figure 3-5, align the bottom rear screw hole on the hard drive with the hole labeled "SAS" on the hard drive carrier.

When aligned correctly, the rear of the hard drive will be flush with the rear of the hard-drive carrier.

3Attach the four screws to secure the hard drive to the hard-drive carrier. See Figure 3-5.
