Installing SATA Hard Drives

Installing SATA Hard Drives

You can install up to two additional SATA hard drives, using the hard drive bracket found inside the unit. This bracket supports hard drives that are 2.5" wide and is mounted on top of the installed power supply. Adding two hard drives can be useful in cases where you would like to use RAID configuration or need additional storage for your needs. When adding new hard drives to your system, ensure that you have them set up appropriately to work with your 4Sight XV7.

  1. Power down you unit and ensure that it is unplugged from the main power supply.
  2. Remove the chassis cover, as described in Removing the Zebra 4Sight XV7 chassis cover.
  3. Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the four screws found on the top of the hard drive bracket, as outlined in the following image.
  4. Using the screws provided in your accessory bag, you can attach up to two SATA hard drives. Ensure to line up the screw holes of the bracket with those found on the SATA hard drives and also orient your hard drive so that the power and data ports are facing away from the edge with a metal lip.
  5. With the SATA hard drives mounted to the hard drive bracket, re-attach the bracket to the power supply bracket in the same way you took it off.
  6. Connect the hard drives to the SATA power cables that come from the internal power supply.
  7. Use the red SATA data cables provided in the accessory bag to connect the SATA hard drives to the SATA data ports on the motherboard.
  8. Close the chassis lid and turn the power on to your Zebra 4Sight XV7 unit.
