MOUNTING THE S3000XL
If you plan to rack mount the S3000XL, try to leave some ‘breathing space’ around it to
prevent overheating. It is recommended you leave 1U of rack space above and below the
sampler.
If you are placing the sampler on a table, make sure that the table is sturdy and that the
sampler is not positioned precariously.
If you are using the S3000XL with a hard disk device of any kind, the disk drive MUST be
mounted horizontally. If the disk drive is at an angle, even a slight one, you may have
unreliability problems and even data corruption.
If you are planning to rack mount the hard disk with the sampler, it is recommended you
use the ‘padded’ type of rack mount adapter available from most manufacturers of rack
and flight cases especially if you are likely to be travelling a lot with the set-up. The
padding will help protect the disk drive’s delicate head mechanism against shock and
excessive vibration.
It goes without saying that the S3000XL and the disk drive are delicate pieces of precision
electronics and they don’t take kindly to being thrown around however sturdy your flight
case might be!
