This enclosure supports up to 12 Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) or 12 Serial ATA (SATA) disk drives. For more information, including supported enclosure configurations, refer to the Adaptec SANbloc S50 SAS JBOD Enclosure User’s Guide on the CD.
Preparing for Installation 1 Carefully read Safety Notices on page 14. 2 Remove all the components from the packaging, inspect them for shipping damage, then place them on an antistatic surface until you are ready to use them. If you are using new disk drives, allow them to acclimate to room temperature before installing them.
2 Secure the front rails to the front supports of the rack, using the screws or nuts included in the kit. (Use the nuts if your rack does not have threaded holes.) ) Secure rear rail, using rail length suitable for your rack Rear support Front support Secure front rail 3 Select the right length of rails for your rack, then secure them to the rear supports of the rack, as shown above.

Installing the Disk Drives Caution Acclimate new disk drives to room temperature before you install them. Before You Begin If you are combining SAS and SATA disk drives in the same SANbloc S50 enclosure, use the figures below to plan where you will be placing the disk drives. These figures represent enclosures fully-loaded with disk drives. However, the same guidelines apply even if you are filling some of the drive slots with blank drive carriers.
Unsupported Disk Drive Combinations Do not include SAS and SATA disk drives in the same column. Do not place a column of SATA disk drives between two columns of SAS disk drives. Installing the Disk Drives Note Install the disk drives from left to right across the enclosure. 1 On the front of the enclosure, select an open drive slot.
4 Gently push the lever until it meets the latch on the left side of the drive slot and clicks into place. 5 Repeat for all remaining disk drives. Note To maintain proper airflow and cooling, a disk drive or a blank drive carrier must be installed in every slot of the enclosure.
