How to install Promise 40 TB Hard Drive

• Power down your computer, server, or NAS and unplug from the power source to prevent damage during installation.
• Open the chassis or drive enclosure and locate an available internal drive bay that matches your system’s mounting requirements.
• Connect a SATA data cable from the motherboard or controller to the new drive, and attach the appropriate power connector from the power supply.
• Secure the drive in the bay with screws or the mounting bracket supplied for your system. Ensure the drive is firmly seated and has adequate airflow around it to minimize heat buildup.
• Power on the system, enter the operating system’s disk management utility, and initialize the new drive. Create a new partition and format it using the file system appropriate for your environment (for example, NTFS, exFAT, APFS, or ext4), then assign a drive letter or mount point as needed. Finally, add the drive to your storage pool or backup workflow to begin utilizing its capacity.
