7 HDDs and accessible drives
Safety notes
VCAUTION!
●The HDDs must all be marked clearly so that they can be put back in their original places after an upgrade. If this is not done, existing data can be lost.
●When a HDD is starting up, a resonant noise may be audible for a short while. This does not indicate a failure.
●Depending on the OS, you can configure the write cache settings for the HDDs. If a power failure should occur while the write cache is enabled, cached data may be lost.
●When disposing of, transferring, or returning a hard disk or solid state drive, wipe out the data on the drive for your own security.
●Rough handling of HDDs may damage the stored data. To cope with any unexpected problems, always back up important data. When backing up data to another HDD, you should make backups on a file or partition basis.
●Handle the device on a shock and vibration free surface.
●Do not use the device in extremely hot or cold locations, or locations with extreme temperature changes.
●Never attempt to disassemble a hard disk or solid state drive.
●Before removing a HDD, wait for about 30 seconds until the disk has stopped spinning completely.
●Before installing an accessible drive, acquaint yourself with the drive's user documentation.
●When inserting an accessible drive into the server, ensure not to pinch or strain any connected cables.
●When installing an accessible drive, hold it by its sides. Applying force to the top of the casing may cause failures.
●When disposing of, transferring, or returning a backup drive, ensure that all backup media has been removed from the drive.
