Safety notes
V
CAUTION!
●
The hard disk drive or solid state drive must not be removed from the
installation frame by anyone except a service technician.
●
The HDD/SSD modules (drives) must all be marked clearly so that
they can be put back in their original places after an upgrade. If this
is not done, existing data can be lost.
●
The hot-plug function is only possible in conjunction with a
corresponding RAID configuration.
Further information about the RAID configuration or RAID level can
be found in the RAID controller documentation.
●
Do not touch the circuitry on boards or soldered parts. Hold the
metallic areas or the edges of the circuit boards.
●
Before removing the unit, wait for about 30 seconds until the hard disk
drive stops spinning completely.
●
When a hard disk drive is starting up, a resonant noise may be
audible for a short while. This does not indicate a failure.
●
Depending on the OS, you can configure the write cache settings for
the hard disk drives. If a power failure should occur while the write
cache is enabled, cached data may be lost.
●
When disposing of, transferring, or returning a hard disk drive or solid
state drive, wipe out the data on the drive for your own security.
●
Rough handling of hard disk drives may damage the stored data. To
cope with any unexpected problems, always back up important data.
When backing up data to another hard disk drive, you should make
backups on a file or partition basis.
●
Be careful not to hit the hard disk drive or bring it into contact with
metallic objects.
●
Handle the device on a shock and vibration free surface.
