Appendix D - Field-Replacing the Carrier Fans
Figure D-1: Removing the Fan Bracket from the Carrier
The DE200i-SWC160 drive carrier contains two (2) front-mounted drive carrier fans for
enhanced heat dissipation. Should the fans ever fail, the unit ID number indicator (located on
the front of the receiving frame) will display a flashing "F" and an audible alarm will sound. Refer
to section "Receiving Frame (Front)" for further information.
In the case of failure, both fans are easily field-replaceable as outlined in the steps below.
NOTE:
A #2 Phillips screwdriver will be required during this procedure.
While performing steps in this section, work on a soft surface to prevent excessive
shock to the drive and carrier.
