The drives that were shipped with this server are pre-configured for use with this server only.
Therefore, when installing the drives, make sure to use these drives only.
To unpack your server:
1. Open the box.
2. Remove the server chassis and
all components from the box.
Avid recommends that you keep all packaging materia
ls for at least 90 days. If you need to return
a server to Avid Technology, Inc., the server and all components must be repackaged in its
original packaging material to ensure that there is no damage during shipment.
3. Remove all of the boxes, and lay them out so you can verify that you have received all of the
comp
onents that should have been shipped.
4. Once all of the components have been unpa
cked, visually inspect the chassis to make sure that it
is free of any scratches and dents, that there are straight connectors on the back, and that the
power-supply securing screws are not bent.
5. The next step is to verify that you have received all of the items particular to your order.
