1 Introduction

The TrueNAS ES102 is a 4U, 102-bay, storage array� It has redundant I/O modules and power supplies�

The ES102 is much larger than other Expansion Shelves sold by iXsystems� Take full safety precautions when

installing or servicing the enclosure�

1.2 Requirements

1.1 Safety

1.1.1 Static Discharge

Static electricity can build up in your body and discharge when touching conductive materials� Electrostatic

Discharge (ESD) is harmful to sensitive electronic devices and components� Keep these safety recommendations in

mind before opening the system case or handling non-hot-swappable system components:

• Turn o the system and remove power cables before opening the case or touching internal components.

• Place the system on a clean, hard work surface like a wooden tabletop� Using an ESD dissipative mat can also

help protect the internal components�

• Touch the metal chassis with your bare hand to dissipate static electricity in your body before touching any

internal components, including components not yet installed in the system� Using an anti-static wristband and

grounding cable is another option�

• Store all system components in anti-static bags�

You can nd more preventative tips and details about ESD at https://www�wikihow�com/Ground-Yourself-to-Avoid-

Destroying-a-Computer-with-Electrostatic-Discharge�

We recommend at least two people lift a TrueNAS system�

Hold the system from the sides or bottom whenever possible� Always be mindful of loose cabling or connectors and

avoid pinching or bumping these elements whenever possible�

This document uses “left” and “right” according to your perspective when facing the front of a system or rack�

1.1.2 Handling the System

You will need these tools to properly install the ES102 in a compatible rack:

• Long T15 screwdriver

• #2 Philips head screwdriver�

You don’t need these items, but they can be useful when installing the ES102:

• Tape measure

• Level

• Flat head screwdriver

• Cable ties�

The ES102 weighs 70 lbs unloaded and requires a minimum of two people to lift�

Do not attempt to lift the ES102 when it is fully populated with drives! The fully-populated system is over 260

lbs� When removing a fully-populated system from a rack, remove the drives before de-racking the enclosure�

You need at least 37�5” (952�5mm) empty space in front of a racked ES102 to fully extend the enclosure to access

all drive bays� The high weight of the enclosure can be a tipping hazard for the rack� Be sure to follow all tipping

prevention instructions recommended by your rack provider before installing the ES102�

3 Install Railkit

ES102 requires 4U of space in an EIA-310 compliant rack that is 47�24” (1200mm) deep, from frame to frame� The

vertical rack rails need to be between 31�5” - 36�2” (800mm - 920mm) apart to properly install the ES102 rails�

We recommend adjusting the front vertical rack rails to be as close to the front as possible to prevent the cable

management arms (CMAs) from protruding from the back of the rack�

The system with CMAs attached is 47�1 (1197mm) deep�

The rack must be a standard 17�72” - 18�31” (450mm - 465mm) wide, although a minimum 29�5” (750mm) cabinet

width allows for using a ZeroU PDU with the ES102� Narrower cabinets could require a rack-mounted PDU for the

system to fully install in the rack with the included CMA�

For 52U racks, we recommend the AR3357X674� For a 42U rack, we recommend the AR3350 APC�

We recommend using the bottom-most 4U space in the rack to balance the system weight with other equipment�

For both the AR3357X674 and AR3350 APC rack, we recommend using the STV-4501, STV-4502, or STV-4503 PDU�

3.1 Install Chassis Rails

Each rack rail includes an inner chassis rail you must remove� Extend the innermost chassis rail as shown below

until you fully expose the metal safety catch� Push the safety catch in and continue to pull out the chassis rail until it

is completely free from the rack rail� Repeat the process for the second rail�

The chassis rails attach to each side of the ES102� Align the chassis rail keyholes over the ES102 side posts� Slide the

rail towards the rear of the system until the rail locks into place� Use three of the low-prole M4 screws to secure

the rail� Repeat for on the other side� The Cable Management Arm bracket must be at the back of the system�

The ES102 occupies 4U of rack space� The front rail pins mount to the 4U bottom-most attach points, and the back

rail pins mount one space above the 4U bottom-most attach points� The rails have left side “L” and right side “R”

stamps�

Install the front of the rail rst. Align the rail pins with the mounting holes in the rack and push forward until the

front latch clicks into place on the rack� Make sure an additional 2U of rack space is available above the rail�

The rear of the rail can adjust to racks with 32” -36” of space between the front and rear rack posts�

Align the rear rail pins with the rack mounting holes and push forward until the blue release catch clicks into place

over the rack� Note that the rear rail pins install one mounting hole higher than the front rail pins� You can use a

level to ensure the front and back of the rail are even�

3.2 Install Rack Rails

When installed correctly, the front and rear of the rail is level and the inner part of the rail with the gray bearing

sleeve faces the inside of the rack� Use the same procedure to install the other rail� Be sure to install both left and

right rails at the same height in each rack post�

Use three of the included washers and T15 M5 screws to secure the rear of the rail to the rack post�

4 Install Cover Retention (Optional)

4.1 Attach Cage Nuts

4.2 Attach Retention Brackets

The cover retention components hold the cover in place when the unit slides forward out of the rack, simplifying

drive bay access� If you want cover retention, install alignment brackets over the rear of the rack rails� Then install

cage nuts at the system’s front for the cover retention screws�

You need two square cage nuts�

Place a cage nut in the reserved 4U topmost rack mounting hole. A at head screwdriver can help push the cage nut

“wings” into the rack mounting hole�

The nut should be inside the rack, with the “wings” touching the left and right sides of the hole (horizontal).

Repeat this process for the other rack post and make sure to install both cage nuts in parallel rack mounting holes�

Place the Cover Retention Bracket over the rail and align it with the mounting holes on the rear of the rack rail� The

groove in the bracket must point toward the inside of the rack. Use ve washers and T15 M5 screws to secure the

bracket to the rear of the rack rail�

Use the same method to install the second alignment bracket to the other rail� Make sure the grooves on top of

both brackets point inside the rack� The ES102 cover slides into the grooves when it is pushed into the rack�

5 Install Latch Plates

The latch plates attach to the front of the rack rails� They secure the rails to the rack and hold the enclosure in place

when fully inserted in the rack� Align a plate over the three holes between the rack rail front mounting pins� The

ange must point to the outside of the rack. Use three T15 M5 screws to secure the latch plate, rack post, and rack

rails together�

Use the same precess to install the second plate. Ensure the anges both latch plates face the outside of the rack.

6 Mount the ES102 in the Rack

Slide the middle part of the rack rails out of the rack until they click into place� Make sure the inner bearing sleeve is

also slid as far forward as possible�

Lift the ES102 and align the chassis rails with the middle rack rails� Push the ES102 into the rack rails until it stops�

Locate the metal safety catches on each chassis rail and squeeze them into the chassis� Hold the safety catches in

place and push the chassis into the rack until the chassis latches touch the rail latch plates�

Ensure the enclosure cover slides into the Alignment Bracket grooves at the rear of the rack�

To minimize jarring motions, gently secure the ES102 in place by swinging the front handles out and pushing the

enclosure forward until it is fully in the rack� When you release the handles, the enclosure latches catch behind the

latch plates and hold the system in the rack�

Caution: When using a lift, you need two people and 7ft of clearance between the system front and the rack�

When lifting unaided, you need three people and 5ft of clearance to safely lift and install the chassis� Do not

install drives until the chassis is installed in the rack� Remove all drives before removing the chassis from the rack�

Warning: Do not use the front handles to lift the ES102! The handles are only for unlatching and sliding the

enclosure after attaching it to the rack rails� They cannot support the system’s weight�
