HDD/SSD Unit Installation

(1)

Unscrew the attachment screws (2) from the HDD slot to remove the slot cover.

(2)

Hold the HDD/SSD unit’s handle and insert the unit slowly (to avoid a sudden movement) into the PL

unit along the guide rail until the connector is completely connected.

(3)

Secure the HDD/SSD unit in place using the HDD slot screws (2). The torque should be 0.2 to 0.3 N

m.

Be sure to turn off the PL unit before installing the HDD unit. Neglecting to do so may result

in a failure.

• Since the HDD unit is a precision instrument that has a low resistance to shocks,

be sure it is neither hit by nor pressed strongly against another object when

installing it.

• Even when the screen display of the monitor connected to the PL unit is blank,

the power might be distributed internally (for example, in the Standby state).

Make sure that the power supply of the PL unit is off when installing or removing

the HDD/SSD unit.

• When using the software mirroring utility (APL-SM3000), you can replace a faulty

HDD drive with the PL unit operating. The software mirroring utility is not

corresponding to the SSD unit. For details, refer to “Software Mirroring Utility

APL-SM3000 Reference Manual.”
