chassis, be sure to do the following:
• Install a drive or drive blank into all drive bays.

Power requirements
Installation of this equipment must comply with local and regional electrical regulations governing the
installation of IT equipment by licensed electricians. This equipment is designed to operate in installations
covered by NFPA 70, 1999 Edition (National Electric Code) and NFPA-75, 1992 (code for Protection of
Electronic Computer/Data Processing Equipment). For electrical power ratings on options, refer to the
product rating label or the user documentation supplied with that option.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, fire, or damage to the equipment, do not overload
the AC supply branch circuit that provides power to the rack. Consult the electrical authority having
jurisdiction over wiring and installation requirements of your facility.
CAUTION: Protect the server from power fluctuations and temporary interruptions with a regulating
UPS. This device protects the hardware from damage caused by power surges and voltage spikes
and keeps the server in operation during a power failure.
