A) Quick Start Guide Legends The Information icon highlights particularly useful information or items which are very important to note when using or configuring the product. The Caution icon indicates possible actions or procedures which could prevent proper operation or cause a system malfunction and the associated text will explain how to avoid this.
Ensure that the product is securely held at all times as dropping the product will almost certainly damage it (possibly beyond repair) and more importantly, may cause severe personal injury, especially to hands and feet. Extreme caution is essential. Do not move the system once powered up. To do so may result in damage to the disks and potential loss of data. C) Product Package Contents Carefully unpack the package contents.
We highly recommend that the unit is mounted into a rack for normal operation. If rack-mounted, it is essential that the unit is mounted on a rack tray or shelf for support – it should not be mounted on the rack-mount lugs alone. We highly recommend that the unit is mounted in the rack (or if not to be rack mounted, placed in the desired location) before any disks are inserted. The unit is quite heavy when empty, but very heavy when fully populated with hard disks.
Carefully insert the loaded trays into the COLDSTORE unit, starting from the left (Disk Slot 1) and filling each slot in sequence with as many disks as required. The trays should be inserted as follows: With the tray level wide open, insert the tray into the slot taking care that the tray guide lines up with the disk cage runners.
