Appendix A Replacing and Upgrading FRUs This appendix describes how to replace the Field Replaceable Units (FRUs) in the DSN-4000 series arrays. FRUs that can be replaced or upgraded include: SATA and SAS Drives Power Supply Modules Cooling Fan Modules Controller Module Cache Battery - D-Link DSN-4200 | Hardware Reference Guide for DSN-4000 - Page 30
procedure: 1. Squeeze the latching mechanism on the front of the drive carrier that you wish to remove. 2. Pull the drive carrier out of the DSN-4000 series enclosure. Be careful to remove the correct drive carrier, since removing the wrong drive may cause some volumes to fail or become reduced. - D-Link DSN-4200 | Hardware Reference Guide for DSN-4000 - Page 31
power supplies on the DSN-4000 series are field- module. 5. Pull the power supply module out of the DSN-4000 series enclosure. Retaining Screw for Power Supply #0 Retaining : 1. Carefully slide the power supply module into the DSN-4000 series enclosure. 2. Install and tighten the retaining screw - D-Link DSN-4200 | Hardware Reference Guide for DSN-4000 - Page 32
