■Yes - Go to step 3.

■No - Run the Recovery Guru to identify the failed component, and then go to step 3.

3.Mute the alarm, and remove the back cover, if needed.

4.Put on antistatic protection.

5.Unpack the new power supply.

Set the new power supply on a dry, level surface near the command module. Save all packing materials in case you need to return it.

6.Turn off the power switch on the new power supply.

7.Check the Fault lights to locate the failed power supply. If a fault is detected, the light will be illuminated and amber.

Caution – WARNING Risk of electrical shock. Never remove or install a power supply that has its power cord plugged in and its power switch turned on. Doing so may expose you to the risk of electrical shock. Always turn off the power switch and unplug the power cord before removing or installing a power supply.

8.Turn off the power switch, and unplug the power cord from the failed power supply.

9.Squeeze the pull ring on the failed power supply to release the lever. Open the lever and remove the power supply.

10.Verify that the lever on the new power supply opens in the same direction as the one you just removed. If it does not, move the lever to the other pivot post.

11.Slide the new power supply into the empty slot and close the lever.

12.Plug in the power cord and turn on the power.

5310 NAS specifications

Sun Microsystems, known for its innovative computing solutions, launched the Sun 5310 Network Attached Storage (NAS) system, which marked a significant advancement in the realm of storage solutions in the early 2000s. The 5310 NAS was designed to provide high-performance, reliable, and scalable storage tailored for enterprise environments.

One of the standout features of the Sun 5310 NAS is its file-serving capabilities, which support multiple protocols, notably NFS (Network File System) and CIFS (Common Internet File System). This dual-protocol support allowed organizations to seamlessly integrate the NAS into diverse IT ecosystems, facilitating interoperability between UNIX, Linux, and Windows systems. The enhanced file-sharing capabilities made it an ideal solution for businesses with mixed operating environments.

The Sun 5310 NAS incorporates cutting-edge technologies to ensure high availability and data integrity. The system utilized a RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) technology, providing various RAID levels to protect against data loss while optimizing performance. Additionally, the device featured hot-swappable drives, enabling maintenance and upgrades with minimal downtime, a crucial factor for business continuity.

Equipped with advanced management software, the Sun 5310 NAS offered users an intuitive interface for monitoring storage health and performance. This software included comprehensive reporting functionalities that allowed IT administrators to oversee usage patterns and capacity planning efficiently.

Scalability was another defining characteristic of the Sun 5310 NAS. The system could easily expand with additional storage modules, accommodating the growing needs of an organization without the necessity for complete system overhauls. This flexibility ensured that businesses could adapt their storage solutions to meet evolving data storage needs without incurring significant costs or disruptions.

In terms of performance, the Sun 5310 NAS featured high I/O throughput achieved through its robust hardware architecture and optimized file serving capabilities. This performance baseline was crucial for organizations that relied on heavy data workloads and required rapid access to information.

In summary, the Sun 5310 NAS from Sun Microsystems embodied a forward-thinking approach to network storage, blending reliability, scalability, and multi-protocol support. Its user-friendly management software, combined with the robustness of RAID technology and hot-swappable drives, made it a preferred choice for enterprises looking to streamline their storage infrastructure while safeguarding critical data.
