5.4Mounting Drives

5.4.1Check before mounting

Reconfirm if the setting terminals are set correctly according to Table 5.8 before mounting the NP model drives in the system cabinet. For setting terminals location, see Section 5.3.

The NC model drives do not require the following check.

5.4.2Mounting procedures

Since mounting the drive depends on the system cabinet structure, determine the work procedures considering the requirements specific to each system. The general mounting method and items to be checked are shown below.

See Subsection 4.1 for the details of requirements for installing the IDD.

1)With a system to which an external operator panel is mounted, if it is difficult to access the connector after the drive is mounted on the system cabinet, connect the external operator panel cable before mounting the drive.

2)Fix the drive in the system cabinet with four mounting screws as follows:

The drive has 10 mounting holes (both sides: 3 ⋅ 2, bottom: 4). Fix the drive by using four mounting holes of both sides or the bottom. (See Figure 4.5)

Use mounting screws whose lengths inside the drive mounting frame are 5.0 mm or less when the screws are tightened (see Figure 4.4).

When mounting the drive, be careful not to damage parts on the PCAs.

3)Check to ensure that the DE is not touching the frame on the system side after tightening the screws. At least 2.5mm of clearance is required between the DE and the frame. (Indicated in Figure 4.4)

4)When an electric driver is in use, less than device specifications must be used.

Fujitsu MAS3735NC/NP, MAS3184NC/NP Mounting Drives Check before mounting, Setting check list NP model only, Scsi ID CN2

MAS3367NC/NP, MAS3184NC/NP, MAS3735NC/NP specifications

Fujitsu's MAS series hard drives, including the MAS3735NC/NP, MAS3184NC/NP, and MAS3367NC/NP, are designed for enterprise applications requiring high performance, reliability, and efficiency. These drives are notable for their ability to manage extensive workloads, making them ideal for demanding server and storage environments.

The MAS3735NC/NP is a 3.5-inch hard drive that operates at 15,000 RPM, providing exceptional data access speeds. With a storage capacity of up to 300GB, this model is optimized for high transaction applications, such as databases and email servers. Its advanced 16 MB buffer ensures that data is managed smoothly, significantly reducing latency and improving overall system performance. The drive employs SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) interface technology, which enhances data transfer rates and provides better reliability compared to traditional SATA interfaces.

The MAS3184NC/NP model features a generous 146GB storage capacity, operating at a slightly lower peak performance of 10,000 RPM. However, it still provides substantial speed and reliability for various server applications. The advanced features of this drive include enhanced error recovery, which minimizes the risk of data corruption, as well as a power-saving mode that reduces energy consumption without compromising performance.

Next in the series, the MAS3367NC/NP offers a combination of capacity and speed. With up to 300GB of storage and also spinning at 15,000 RPM, it matches the performance levels of the MAS3735. This drive utilizes dual-port 6Gb/s SAS technology, which not only boosts data transfer rates but also adds redundancy, thus ensuring continuous availability for mission-critical applications.

All models in this range are designed with advanced technologies such as S.M.A.R.T (Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology), which helps monitor the drive's health and predict potential failures before they occur. Additionally, these drives are built to meet rigorous environmental and physical standards, ensuring durability and longevity in various applications.

In summary, Fujitsu’s MAS3735NC/NP, MAS3184NC/NP, and MAS3367NC/NP hard drives showcase a perfect blend of speed, capacity, and reliability, solidifying their position as leading choices for enterprise-level storage solutions. With their advanced technologies and features, these drives are tailored for environments where performance and reliability are non-negotiable requirements.
