This document describes how to replace the chassis of a NAS
N2000 from Overland Storage.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to
equipment, always remove any power cords while working
with the unit.
AVERTISSEMENT: Pour réduire le risque de choc électrique
ou endommagement de l'équipement, retirez toujours les
cordons électriques en travaillant avec l'appareil.
CAUTION: While working with the unit, observe standard
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) precautions to prevent damage
to micro-circuitry or static-sensitive devices.
Prepare the Unit
Power Off and Disconnect
1. Power off the unit by pressing the Power button on the
front of the server for no more than one second.
While there is no obvious change, the appliance starts its
shutdown process.
2. When all the front LEDs are off, disconnect the power
cords.
3. Disconnect all remaining cables from the unit.
Remove the Front Bezel
Remove the bezel by pressing the latch on the right side,
pulling the right side away from the unit, and pulling the bezel
off to the right.
Set the bezel aside.
Remove the Drives
IMPORTANT: Overland recommends that you remove the
drive assemblies to lessen the unit’s weight prior to removal.
NOTE: Do not remove the disk drives from their carriers. Doing so
voids the drive warranty.
1. Press the release button on the right side of the carrier.
2. Using the built-in handle, pull the drive carrier out.
3. Number the drive and set it on a secure surface.
4. Repeat Steps 1–3 for all the remaining drive carriers.
