How to install Accortec 300 GB Hard Drive

Power down your server or workstation and disconnect power. Remove or access the drive bay to locate an available 2.5" slot. Insert the Accortec 300 GB SAS drive into the drive tray or backplane, ensuring the connectors align with the SAS backplane. Secure the drive with screws or lock it into the chassis’ tool-less tray mechanism. Connect the SAS data cable and the power cable to the backplane or controller, then close the bay. If your system supports hot-swapping, you can replace drives without powering down; otherwise, perform the installation with the system powered off. Boot the system and enter the RAID controller or storage management utility. Initialize and format the drive, or add it to a RAID array or storage pool according to your deployment strategy. Finally, verify the drive status in the controller interface and run a quick health check to confirm proper operation and integration with existing storage resources.
