3.1 Site Considerations The site where you install the DSN-3000 series storage system can affect its performance. Therefore, choose a site that conforms to the requirements in the following sections. 3.1.1 General Considerations Observe the following considerations when selecting a location to install the DSN-3000 series storage system.  The location should be fairly cool and dry for the acceptable temperature and humidity ranges.  The location should be free of strong electromagnetic field generators (such as motors), vibration, dust, and direct exposure to sunlight.  The location must provide sufficient airflow to the front and back of the DSN-3000 series storage system for correct cooling. Ventilation must be sufficient to exhaust heat from the rear of the equipment.  The location should offer a power outlet within six feet (1.82 meters) of the DSN-3000 series storage system.  The location should allow for at least six inches (152.3 mm) of space at the front and back of the DSN-3000 series storage system for ventilation.  Do not place the DSN-3000 series storage system next to, on top off, or below any device that generates a significant amount of heat or will block the fee flow of air through the DSN-3000 series ventilation slots. 3.1.2 Desktop, Floor or Shelf Installation The DSN-3000 series storage system can be mounted on a desktop or shelf. Observe the following considerations for desktop or shelf installations.  Select a sturdy, level surface that can support the DSN-3000 series storage system. A fully populated unit weighs approximately 73 lbs. (33 kg.).  Allow enough ventilation space between the DSN-3000 series storage system and any other objects in the vicinity.  Be sure not to block the air vents on the front and back of the DSN-3000 series storage system enclosure. Install the cables and power cords according to the procedures in the following sections. 22 Chapter 3 Installing the DSN-3000 series Storage System

the rear of the equipment.
The location should offer a power outlet within six feet (1.82 meters) of the DSN-3000
series storage system.
The location should allow for at least six inches (152.3 mm) of space at the front and
back of the DSN-3000 series storage system for ventilation.
Do not place the DSN-3000 series storage system next to, on top off, or below any device
that generates a significant amount of heat or will block the fee flow of air through the
DSN-3000 series ventilation slots.
3.1.2
Desktop, Floor or Shelf Installation
