2 Preparation

A Philips screwdriver is needed for screws and a cutting instrument for any zip ties.

Shut down the TrueNAS system and unplug the power cable. Note where any other

cables are connected to the back of the system and unplug them also. If a “Tamper

Resistant” sticker is present, removing or cutting it to remove the case does not

aect the system warranty.

2.1 Anti-static Precautions

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

materials. Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) is very harmful to sensitive electronic devic-

es and components. Keep these safety recommendations in mind before opening

the system case or handling system components:

1. Turn o the system and remove the power cable before opening the system case

or touching any internal components.

2. 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.

3. Touch the metal chassis of the Mini with your bare hand before touching any

internal component, including components not yet installed in the system. This re-

directs static electricity in your body away from the sensitive internal components.

Using an anti-static wristband and grounding cable is another option.

4. Store all system components in anti-static bags.

2.2 Opening the Case

Unscrew the four thumbscrews on the back of the Mini:

Slide a side panel o the chassis by grasping the side and pulling the panel away

from the front of the system. When the side panel can no longer move away from

the chassis frame, gently pull the panel away from the system.

2.3 Removing the Motherboard Tray

Space inside the chassis is very limited, and you might nd additional room is re-

quired to add or remove components from the motherboard. The Mini mother-

board is attached to a tray that can be unsecured and slid out from the back of the

system.

Warning!

Be very careful when removing or inserting the motherboard tray into the sys-

tem. It is recommended to note where cables are connected to the motherboard

and disconnect them as needed to safely remove the motherboard from the

system. Be sure to follow all anti-static precautions.

To unsecure the motherboard tray from the Mini chassis, unscrew each retaining

screw from the back of the system.

Very carefully pull the tray out of the back of the system. Continously check that no

wires are being pulled or caught on other components inside the system.

3 Upgrading Memory

A memory upgrade includes one or more inline memory modules:

The Mini X+ motherboard has four memory slots, color-coded as blue and black

pairs. The default memory is typically installed in the blue slots, with any memory

upgrades installed in the black slots.

Memory Slots

Latches Latches

Each slot has latches on the ends to secure the memory in place. These latches

need to be pushed open before installing the memory, but will automatically close

as the module is pushed into place.

3.1 Installing Memory

Memory is installed as same-capacity pairs in the matching color slots. Systems

typically have memory already installed in the blue sockets, with the black slots

reserved for additional memory.

Touch the metal chassis to discharge any static, then open the plastic package con-

taining a memory module. Avoid touching the gold edge connector on the module.

Line up the notch in the bottom of the memory module with the key in the socket.

The notch is oset to one end. If the notch does not line up with the key built into

the socket, ip the memory module around end-to-end.

Gently guide the module into the slot, pressing down on one end of the module

until the hinged latch swings in, locking into place. Press down on the other end

until that latch also locks into place. Repeat this process for each memory module

to install.

Prepare the motherboard by pushing down on the memory latches to open them.

These latches re-close as the memory is pushed into the motherboard slot, secur-

ing the memory in module in place.

Note

This image shows the motherboard with all of the obstructing cables removed. If

you have to remove any cables to better access the memory slots, be sure to re-

add them when nished installing the memory modules.

4 Upgrading Networking

The Network Upgrade Kit includes one Chelsio 10 Gb Network Interface Card with

dual Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP)+ ports. A half-height bracket is included in

the box but is not needed for Mini X+ network card installation. SFP+ modules are

ordered and installed separately.

4.1 Network Card

The Chelsio 10Gb network card connects the system directly to a ber optic net-

work using the PCIe slot on the motherboard. This card supports installing two SFP+

modules (sold separately).

4.2 SFP+ Module Installation

Align the SFP+ module with the SFP+ cage on the network card and gently push un-

til it is fully seated in place. Dierent SFP+ module products are available, and the

connection procedure can vary slightly by product.

SFP+ modules can have a rubber dust cover. Keep the cover in place until ready to

connect a ber optic cable. To remove the dust cover, pull the dust cover away from

the SFP+ module.

4.3 Motherboard Slot Cover Removal

It is recommended to keep the motherboard tray in place when installing the net-

work card. This allows the network card to properly slide into the bracket retention

slot on the bottom of the chassis. You might also need to gently move cables aside

to make room for the card, but take care to ensure no wires are pinched.

4.4 Network Card Installation

Align the network card with the PCIe slot and press down on the center of the card

until the gold connectors are rmly seated inside the PCIe slot (1). Some of the con-

nectors can extend past the edge of the PCIe slot. The bottom of the network card

bracket will slide through a small retention slot on the bottom of the chassis.

Align the network card bracket with the slot retention screw hole and use a slot cov-

er screw to secure the network card to the back panel (2).

With the system side panels removed (2.2), locate the PCIe slot on the mother-

board. Punch out and discard the network slot cover from the system I/O shield.
