In this case, there is one system bay and one disk bay placed beside each other. You need to remove the system bay side panel against the disk bay and the disk bay side panel against the system bay before installation so that SAS cables can be routed between the two bays.
- Page 7 3 Installing Bays Securing bays Use an adjustable wrench to extend the leveling caster until the caster are not touching the ground and the bay is level. NOTICE Leave a 6 mm to 8 mm space between every two bays so that the front door of the bay on the right can move free when the front door of the bay on the left is fully open.
