Environment
Ambient temperature
Ensure the enclosure temperature remains at or 
below maximum specified
Dust
Ensure the drive remains dust free – check that 
the heatsink and drive fan are not gathering 
dust. The lifetime of the fan is reduced in dusty 
environments.
Moisture
Ensure the drive enclosure shows no signs of 
condensation 
Enclosure
Enclosure door filters
Ensure filters are not blocked and that air is free 
to flow 
Electrical
Screw connections Ensure all screw terminals remain tight
Crimp terminals
Ensure all crimp terminals remains tight – check 
for any discoloration which could indicate 
overheating
Cables  Check all cables for signs of damage
