Setup Location

Your ReadyNAS storage system is intended for installation in a restricted access location

(dedicated equipment rooms, service closets, and the like) only.

Keep the following considerations in mind as you install your system:

• Ambient operating temperature. If the system is installed in a closed or multiunit rack

assembly, the ambient operating temperature of the rack environment might be greater

than the ambient temperature of the room. Therefore, consider installing the equipment in

an environment compatible with the maximum rated ambient temperature. See

Appendix

A, Defaults and Technical Specifications.

• Reduced airflow. Mount the equipment into a rack so that the amount of airflow required

for safe operation is not compromised.

• Mechanical loading. Mount the equipment into a rack so that a hazardous condition

does not arise due to uneven mechanical loading.

• Circuit overloading. Consider the equipment’s connection to the power supply circuitry

and the effect that any possible overloading of circuits might have on overcurrent

protection and power supply wiring. Consider equipment nameplate ratings when

addressing this concern.

• Reliable grounding. This product requires reliable grounding to be maintained at all

times. To ensure this, ground the rack itself. Pay particular attention to power supply

connections other than the direct connections to the branch circuit (for example, the use

of power strips).

• Clearance. Leave enough clearance in front of the rack (about 25 inches) to enable you

to open the front door completely and in the back of the rack (about 30 inches) to allow for

sufficient airflow and ease in servicing.
