21. Lock the drives into the slot: press down while sliding the latch to the locked position, towards the rear of the
enclosure. Repeat for each disk drive.
22. Note the position of the interface card, as the drives must be installed with the card facing the front of the
drawer.
23. Press the button on each drawer slide to release the drawer, then slide the drawer back into the enclosure.
24. Repeat the steps until both the drawers have been fully populated with either disk drives or dummy carriers.
25. Close the second drawer and secure the two drawer latches with a T-20 Torx screwdriver.
26. If During Initial Rack Installation: Until the rack is in its final position, repeat for the second enclosure only,
working from the lower drawer upwards.
Install the disk drives in only the two lowest 5U84 (SSU) enclosures, until the rack is in its final position.
27. If the Rack Is in its Final Position: After the rack is located in its final position, continue populating all the
drives for the configuration, working from the lowest empty drawer up.
IMPORTANT: Any drive bay not occupied by a populated drive carrier must have a dummy drive
carrier installed for proper airflow.
