Abstract: 8644 HARDFILE INSTALLATION

TEXT:

Machines Affected : 8644 -All models

The Netfinity 3500 User Guide publication indicates two different methods for installing an optional hardfile to the 8644 system.One method utilizes the small blue colored rubber grommets which are already attached to the DASD bays.The other method does not.

It is recommended that the rubber grommets should be used for all optional hardfile installations into the 8644. Use of these grommets will reduce the amount of acoustic noise from the hardfile.

Furthermore the grommets will require a slighlty longer screw to install the hardfile.

A spare supply of the screws are installed in every 8644 system in a spare DASD tray which is attached to one of the top DASD bays.
