Installation WARNING! Hard drives and storage enclosures require careful handling, especially when being transported. If you are not careful with your hard disk, lost data may result. Always handle your hard drive and storage device with caution. Be sure that you are properly grounded by wearing an anti-static strap when handling computer components or discharge yourself of any static electricity build-up by touching a large grounded metal surface (such as the computer case) for several seconds.

Hard drives can be removed from the enclosure by pressing down on the handles, then pulling them out. 5. Once all of the hard drives are installed, reinstall the metal cage and front door. Make sure the bottom of the cage stays inside of the track before closing the cover. 6. Connect the power adapter DIN connector into the side of the enclosure and power up the enclosure.
