Remove some of the heavier components that are located in the top of the cabinet to ensure maximum stability.
Before you begin
- Make sure the maximum weight does not exceed 2000 lbs before you move the cabinet.
- Note the location of each tray, component, and cable before removing it, so that you can reinstall each item in its original location.
Steps
- Record the cable configuration for future reassembly if any cables must be disconnected.
- Remove the drive trays and controller-drive trays in the top half of the cabinet. Keep all of the components from the same tray together.
Note: You do not need to remove the power supplies or other components from the rear of each tray.
- Place each component in a separate antistatic bag. If the original shipping boxes are available, use them to transport the components.
