Creating a new video file system destroys all media files and other data on the disk
modules.
If you are adding additional PFC500s or PFC500E Expansion chassis, refer to one of
the following procedures, then return to this procedure to configure the storage
system:
• “Connecting storage: Using a single PFC 500” on page 61
