NOTE: If the slide assemblies were preinstalled by Dell, you may skip this section.

Use the Dell rack template to determine where you want to install the slide assem- blies. The rack template is the same height as the computer chassis.

You must allow 7 U (12.25 inches) of vertical space for each PowerEdge system you install in the rack (see Figure 6).

NOTE: The rails of the rack are marked by small indentations in 1-U increments (see Figure 5).
