Installation

After removing the screws, the drive sled slid out without having to use any force, but felt solid enough that it wouldn't vibrate too much with a drive inside. The sled consists of the rear of the case where the jacks are, and two rails extending from it where the drive connects to.



Slide the drive along the rails and make sure the drive's SATA connectors are aligned properly with the enclosure's connectors. Vantec provides screws to screw the drive to the rails, but I was slightly surprised at the lack of any rubber grommets to keep the drive a little more silent.

After all this is done, make sure the 2-pin connector is connected to the PCB board, as this is what controls the Vantec LED on the front of the case. Slide the sled back into the case and secure it with by putting the screws you removed back in.
