– Reinstalling the expansion enclosure after you complete a service task (for example, replacing the
enclosure FRU).
• At least three persons are required to move the enclosure while it is in the rack (if you are moving the
enclosure off the rails). Even after the drives, power supply units, secondary expander modules,
canisters, fans, and top cover are removed, the enclosure weighs approximately 43 kg (95 lbs).
• To maximize rack stability, always install the expansion enclosure in the lowest possible position in the
rack.

The SAS drives are shipped in a separate package from the 5U expansion enclosure. The enclosure can
support up to 92 SAS drives; however, the quantity varies depending on the number of drives ordered.
Table 13 on page 47 summarizes the weight of the SAS drives that are supported in the 5U expansion
