align its holes with the screw holes in the drive

(Figure 7).

drive; tighten each screw to secure the tray snugly to the drive;
do not overtighten the screws (Figure 7).

8. Flip the drive and drive tray over so that they are resting on

the other side. Push the drive tray rail up to expose the screw
holes on the side of the drive, and then apply a single drop of
threadlocker inside each of the three holes

(Figure 8).

9. Using three of the supplied screws, secure the drive tray to the

drive; tighten each screw to secure the tray snugly to the drive;
do not overtighten the screws (Figure 8).

10. Repeat steps 5–9 for each remaining drive.

11. With the lever fully opened, carefully slide the drive module

into the enclosure until it stops, and then secure it by pushing
the lever in until it snaps closed

(Figure 9). Repeat with the

remaining drive modules.

Connect Fusion DX800RAID Drive Enclosure to Sonnet

RAID Controller

This section describes the connection of the Fusion DX800RAID drive
enclosure to the Sonnet RAID controller card.

1. Insert one end of each of the supplied data cables to the mini-

SAS ports on the enclosure;

verify the connectors are plugged in

securely (Figure 10).

WARNING:

When securing the trays to the hard drives, you

must verify the screw heads are flush with the tray. Otherwise,

a screw may catch on the side of the enclosure and prevent you from
removing the tray.

WARNING:

When inserting drive modules into the enclosure,

do not force the levers closed. If a lever does not close easily,

remove and reinsert the module, and then push the lever in again.
