INSTALLING HARD DISK DRIVES
You must install the data storage hard disk drives supplied with the NVR300 unit. Note that the system drive is installed at the factory.
To install the data storage hard disk drives, refer to Figure 5 and do the following:
1. Identify the carriers containing the data storage drives and the dummy drives that were shipped with the NVR300.
2. Unlock the front door of the NVR300.
3. Insert the carriers into the hard disk drive bay:
a. Do either of the following:
•
If the NVR300 unit is a non-RAID system (“J” designation) of 250 GB (all systems with internal storage), insert each carrier
containing a storage drive into a slot, starting with slot 0.
•
If the NVR300 unit is an internal RAID system (“R” designation) of 250 GB (all systems with internal storage), insert each
numbered carrier containing a storage drive into the slot with the corresponding number.
NOTES:
•
When inserting each carrier, ensure that the carrier is securely seated in the slot and that the lock latch on the top of the carrier locks into
the hard disk drive bay. (The carriers should not be able to be removed from the slots without pressing the lock latch.)
•
The system drive, which is installed at the factory, always occupies the slot labeled
OS
.
b. Insert the carriers containing dummy drives into the remaining slots.
4. Lock the front door of the NVR300.

Hard Disk Drive Installation
WARNING:
Handle the hard disk drives with care. Improper handling can easily damage the drives. In addition, prevent electrostatic
discharge (ESD) damage to the hard disk drives by following ESD precautions. Always wear a grounding wrist strap that is connected to an
approved grounding source when installing the hard disk drives.
WARNING:
The NVR300 must
not
be powered on during hard disk drive installation. Ensure that the power cord is
not
connected to the
NVR300 prior to installing the hard disk drives.
