Chapter 4: Power Supplies and Fans
4.2 Installing a Power Supply
To prevent compatibility issues, only use components that match the specifications or part
numbers.
1.
Insert the power module into the empty power bay. Be sure that the orientation is
correct. Match the pictures of the chassis front in Chapter 1. If you inadvertently put a
power supply upside down, it can be very difficult to remove.
2. Push unit all the way in until it is firmly seated.
3.
Push the locking handle into the closed position until it clicks into position.
4.
Move the locking clip away from the socket and reconnect the power cord.
