Dell SC5020 User Manual

Installation and Conguration
Before you begin installation, make sure that the site where you plan to install the
storage system has standard power from an independent source or a rack power
distribution unit with a UPS.
In addition, verify that there is a 3U space in the lower 20U of the rack to install the
storage system. If you plan to install the storage system above the lower 20U of a
rack, a customer-provided mechanical lift must be used to avoid injury.
Unpacking Storage Center Equipment
Unpack the storage system and identify the items in your shipment.
