Task 2: Installing Disk Drives

You can populate the SmartStor NS4600 with SATA 1.5 Gb/s or 3.0 Gb/s disk
drives. For optimal performance, install disk drives of the same model and
capacity. Your disk drives will become a RAID Volume on the SmartStor.
To install disk drives:
1. Open the door on the front of the SmartStor enclosure.
2. Pull a disk drive carrier from the enclosure. See Figure 1.
3. Carefully lay the disk drive into the drive carrier, so that the screw holes on
the sides of the carrier align with the screw holes in the drive. See Figure 3.
