Installing the Snap-In Disk Array
1.  Slide the Snap-In Disk Array into a set of 
three standard 5.25” drive bays on your  
system or storage chassis. Orient the Disk 
Array so that the drive door open to the right 
in horizontal mount or swing open downward 
in vertical mount. Be sure there is no    
metal tabs on the inside of any one of the 
three drive bays that may interfere with the 
installation. 
 
2.  Secure the Snap-In Disk Array to the drive 
bay on both sides with the screws that come 
with the unit. Note: using other long screws 
may interfere with the hard drive 
installation.
3.  Connect the two 4-pin Molex power 
connectors on the Disk Array unit to the 
system power supply
4.  Connect the 4 SATA connectors to SATA 
host or the 4 SAS connector to SAS host in 
your system
5.  Power on your system. Check to make 
sure the main power LED is lit and that the 
two cooling fans are spinning.
Adding and removing hard drives 
from the Snap-In Disk Array
1.  Be sure the lock on each drive door is in an unlock position. If not, us\
e the key that  
  comes with the Disk Array to unlock the drive door. Pull on the door lever to swing open  
  the drive door all the way.
2.  Slide a 3.5” SATA hard drive into the drive slot with the drive connector side facing in.\
  
  Be sure to orient the hard drive correctly as shown in the yellow label \
on the inside of  
  the drive door – with drive door swing open at the bottom, the top of\
 the hard drive  
  should face to the right. The drive should slide all the way into the slot with very  
  little resistance. Forcing the drive into the slot will cause drive dama\
ge or    
  permanent damage to the Disk Array.
3.  Once the drive is all the way into the drive slot, close the door all th\
e way till the drive  
  door latch securely. This will engage power and data connection with the hard drive.  
  The LED lit for the drive slot should lit if the Disk Array already powered on. You may  
  lock the drive door with the key
4.  To remove the hard drive from the Disk Array, simply follow the step 2 – 3 in reverse.
