drives.

Enclosure Setup Instructions

WARNING: The DataPort 1U Enclosure requires slide rails or
another support system to be rack mounted. The front mount-
ing brackets will not allow the DataPort 1U Enclosure to be rack
mounted without additional support.

1. Power off the host computer and disconnect the power cord.

2. Install the internal drives in the DataPort 1U Enclosure. See In-

stalling a Hard Drive in the Enclosure section for more details.

3. Install hard drives in the removable carriers. See Installing a

Hard Drive in the Carrier section for more details.

4. Insert the removable carriers into the enclosure and engage

the lock on the carrier.

5. Connect the host computer to the DataPAK 1U Multi-Lane

Enclosure with an external multi-lane cable (not provided).

6. Power on the DataPort 1U Enclosure with the power button

located on the back of the enclosure. For best results power on
the enclosure prior to powering on the host system.

NOTE: The DataPAK 1U Multi-Lane Enclosure supports hot
swapping the hard drives in the Removable Drive Carriers,
provided the host bus adapter also supports that feature.
When hot swapping drives, ensure drive activity has
stopped before powering down the Removable Drive Carri-
ers. The DataPAK will remove 2 drives from the array when
the carrier is removed, this will cause some RAIDs to fail
and could require a system reboot to restore functionality.

1U Rack mount enclosure with DualPAK™ removable dual drive carriers. Ideal
for disk-to-disk backup where users can “pull” a backup at anytime. Rugged
Sheet Metal Design and Shock-mounted DualPAK multi-disk removable drive
carriers for drive protection during operation, removal, transporting and stor-
age. Available in Quad RAID (eSATA, USB 2.0, FireWire 800/400) or Multilane
Point-to-Point SAS/SATA JBOD.
