Bosch Security System

The RAID subsystem has been designed to fit into a standard cabinet or rack. Two (2) slide 

rails are available for installing the subsystem into a rack or cabinet. Please contact your sys-

tem vendor for further details. The subsystem should be installed in the rack or cabinet before 

the hard drives and the drive trays are installed. If the drive trays with the associated hard 

drives are installed, the subsystem will be too heavy to mount into a rack or cabinet. When 

installing the subsystem into a rack or cabinet it is advisable that three people assist in the 

mounting process.

To install the subsystem into a rack or cabinet please refer to the installation instructions that 

came with the slide rails.

Once the hard drives have been installed in the drive trays, the drive trays can be installed into 

the RAID subsystem.

1.

Make sure the key-lock is in the unlocked position, i.e., the groove on its face is in a hori-

zontal orientation. If the groove is in a vertical position, as shown in Figure 3.1, then the 

key-lock is locked and the front flap on the drive tray cannot be opened.

drive tray. The front flap will open in an upward direction.

3.

Align the drive tray with the slot in which you wish to insert it. Make sure that it is resting 

on the rails inside the enclosure. Once the drive tray is lined up with the slot, gently slide 

it in. This should be done smoothly and gently. (See Figure 3.3)

All drive trays must be installed into the enclosure even if they do not contain a hard drive. If 

the trays are not installed into the enclosure, the ventilation required for cooling will not be 

normalized and the subsystem will overheat.
