2.Using a #2 Phillips screwdriver, remove the four screws from the rails (two screws in each rail). See 4 in Figure 20 on page 40. If you do not remove these screws, the storage subsystem will not fit securely.

Note: If the screws are shipped in the hardware pack instead of already installed in the rails, skip this step and go to step 3.

3.Place the storage subsystem in the rack.

Note: If you have removed the CRUs from the DS4700 Express, you should be able to lift the unit into the cabinet with the help of one other person. If you have not removed the CRUs before the installation, you should have at least two other people available to help you lift the DS4700 Express into the rack.

a.Move the storage subsystem to the front of the rackmount cabinet.

b.With help from another person, place the back of the storage subsystem on the support rails, and then slide the unit into the rack as shown in Figure 25.

4.Secure the storage subsystem. Figure 26 on page 48 shows how to secure the storage subsystem to the rack.

a.Align the front mounting holes on each side of the storage subsystem with the mounting holes on the front of the support rails.

b.Using the screws that you removed in step 2, secure the sides in the back of the DS4700 Express to the rack rails.

c.Secure the front of the DS4700 Express using the four M5 screws as shown in Figure 26 on page 48.
