1 Introduction

The ES60 is a 4U JBOD with 60 3�5” drive bays, redundant power supplies, and two TrueNAS controllers�

The ES60 requires a rack post depth range between 28�5” and 32” with the Cable Management Arm (CMA), or 36”

without the CMA�

Your system comes with the TrueNAS operating system preloaded�

Review the safety considerations and hardware requirements before installing the ES60 into a rack�

1.1 Safety

1.2 Requirements

1.1.1 Static Discharge

1.1.2 Handling the System

We recommend these tools when installing an R-Series system in a rack:

• #2 Philips head screwdriver

• Flat head screwdriver

• Tape measure

• Level

• 16 standard M5 cage nuts (typically provided with square-hole racks)

We recommend at least two people lift an ES60�

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�

Never attempt to lift an ES60 loaded with drives! Install the system in a rack before adding drives, and remove

drives before de-racking the 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�

These instructions use “left” and “right” according to your perspective when facing the front of a system or rack�

3 Assemble the Rail Kit

3.1 Separate Cabinet Rails from Rack Rails

Each rack rail includes an inner cabinet rail that must be removed� Extend the cabinet rail as shown below until the

white release tab is exposed� Slide the white release tab to the right to release the cabinet rail� Remove the cabinet

rail from the rack rail� Repeat the process for the second rail�

The cabinet rails are mounted on each side of the system� Align the cabinet rail keyholes with the posts on the side

of the chassis� Slide the rail towards the rear of the system until the metal tab clicks and secures the rail in place�

Repeat this process on the other side�

3.2 Mount Cabinet Rails

The ES60 occupies 4U of rack space� The rails mount in the center 2U of that space�

The accessory kit includes cage nuts (for square and round-hole racks), which provide attachment points for rail

screws� Install a cage nut in the 4th hole from the top in the center 2U of rack space� Repeat for all four posts�

The rail ends have Front and Rear stamped on them� Place one rail in the rack with the Front stamp at the front fac-

ing outwards� The Rear stamp goes at the back of the rack� Align the pins on both rail ends with the rack mounting

holes� Make sure the cage nuts line up with the rail holes� Push the pins in to the rack holes until they lock in place�

Use the provided screws to secure the rails to the cage nuts�

4 Rack the ES60

Lift the ES60 with attached cabinet rails and align the cabinet rails with the inside front of the rack rails�

Carefully slide the ES60 forwards into the rack rails until the unit stops (1)� Locate the blue tabs on the inside of the

cabinet rails� Slide the tabs towards the front of the ES60 and hold them in place (2)� Push the chassis into the rack

until the ears are ﬂush with the front of the rack (3)� The thumbscrews on the ears are used to secure the unit in the

rack after drive trays have been installed (4)�

Caution: The ES60 requires two people to safely lift for racking and unracking�

5 Install Drives

5.1 Remove Top Cover

Slide the unit out on the rails� Unscrew the cover screws to unlock the top cover (1)� Slide the top cover forwards,

then lift it o (2)�

5.2 Install Drive Trays

TrueNAS systems only support qualied HDs and SSDs. Contact the Sales Team for more drives or replacements.

Adding unqualied drives to the system voids the warranty. Call Support if drives are improperly installed in trays.

To add a new drive into an empty tray, place the tray on a ﬂat surface (1) and push the hard drive into the tray (2)�

Make sure the connector is at the rear of the tray�

A standard drive tray installation order simplies support and is strongly recommended: install SSD drives for SLOG

rst, if present. Follow this with SSD drives for L2ARC, if present, then hard drives or SSD drives for data storage.

Install the rst drive tray in the front left drive bay. Install the next drive tray to the right of the rst. Install remain-

ing drive trays to the right across the row. After a row is lled with drives, move back to the next row and start again

with the left bay� A label on the front left of the lid shows the preferred order of drives�

Slide the tray button left to open the latch� Carefully lower the drive tray into a drive bay until the latch begins to

move into place� Push the latch down until it locks into place�

Drive trays mount drives in the chassis� Each drive tray has LEDs that denote its current status�

Light Color / Behavior Status

Solid Blue Normal / Hot Spare

Blinking Blue Activity

Solid Amber Issue / Fault / Identify

Note for Samsung 1643a 2.5” SSDs: Drive tray LED’s only activate during drive activity or drive fault�

For proper air ﬂow and cooling, you must install the entire rst row of drive trays. The top cover must also be in

place when the unit is on�

6 Install the Cable Management Arm (CMA) (Optional)

There are two attachment posts on the left rear side of the ES60 for the CMA� Pulling the units lightly out of the rack

can make these posts more accessible� Align the holes on the CMA chassis bracket with the posts� Slide the cable

management arm forwards and pull the lever on the latch upwards to lock the bracket into place�

Locate the end of the ﬂex housing with exposed pins. Un-clip and open the two tabs closest to the end, allowing the

ﬂex housing to compress enough to t into the bracket holes. Press the ﬂex housing rmly into the bracket until the

pins seat in the holes�

Note: You can only use the Cable Management Arm if your rackmount rail depth is between 28�5” and 32”�

The ES60 does not need the CMA to operate, but the CMA can help organize the ES60 power and data cables�

The tabs along the side of the ﬂex housing can be unclipped from the top, the bottom, or removed entirely.
