Chapter 2: Getting Started 
Overview 
Your N199 is designed for complete ease-of-use. To help you get started, the 
following chapter will help you get your N199 up and running in no time. Please 
read it carefully to prevent damaging your unit during installation. 
Before You Begin 
Before you begin, be sure to take the following precautions: 
 
1.  Read and understand the Safety Warnings outlined in the beginning of 
the manual. 
 
2.  If possible, wear an anti-static wrist strap during installation to prevent 
static discharge from damaging the sensitive electronic components on the 
N199. 
 
3.  Be careful not to use magnetized screwdrivers around the N199’s 
electronic components. 
 
4.  The N199 uses its chassis to dissipate heat. Please leave your N199 in a 
well-ventilated area to prevent overheating. 
Hard Disk Installation 
The N199 supports a standard 3.5” (SATA) hard disk. To install a hard disk into 
the N199, follow the steps below: 
 
1.  Remove two screws located on the back of the unit using a Philips 
screwdriver.  
 
2.  Unscrew four mounting screws. 
 
3.  Lift up the hard disk tray by pulling up the top panel of the N199. 
 
4.  Carefully insert a standard 3.5” SATA hard disk into the tray, and secure 
the hard disk with screws from the included accessory pack. 
 
5.  Carefully lower the hard disk tray back into the N199.  
 
6.  After making sure the tray is in place and the connectors are aligned, 
secure the hard disk tray with screws.  
 
NOTE 
 
If your hard disk was previously part of a RAID 1 array, it will automatically rebuild. 
If you replace all the drives with higher capacity drives, you need to go to the 
Administrator login and format the drives.
