5.10 Installing an SA7x Enclosure in SA550, SA650, and SA850
Storage Arrays
This section explains how to install an SA7x enclosure in the SA550, SA650, and
SA850 storage arrays. The procedures for installing an enclosure in these storage
arrays are almost identical.
The SA7x enclosure is shipped in a sealed shipping container, as shown
in Figure 5–26. Complete the procedures described in Section 5.3.1 before
proceeding.
All mounting hardware, internal SDI cables, and power cords are factory
installed for SA7x add-ons in the SA550, SA650, and SA850 storage arrays. After
installing the enclosure, you are required only to connect the SDI cables and
power cords.
5.10.1 Preparing for Installation
The SA550, SA650, and SA850 storage arrays are shipped with the SA7x
enclosure guide rail plates installed for the add-ons. Each add-on SA7x enclosure
has a hardware mounting kit which contains two sets of brackets:
The top and bottom chassis retaining brackets shown in Figure 5–29 are for the
H9646 cabinet. These brackets mate to the chassis retainer attached to the SA7x
enclosure guide rail.
