■Position your racks so that the warm air exhaust from one rack does not flow directly into the cool air intake area for another.

■If space is limited at the back of your Sun StorEdge 72-inch rack, install a redundant fan tray (part number: X9819A) into the top of the rack. This pulls air up through the top of the rack to prevent the build-up of heat behind it.
