Well unless you are really good at things like this I would recommend finding someone to help, at least on the removing of the strut

@@TheDamaddog I'm pretty good, have tools. I repaired film cameras many years ago. Cars are relatively easy in comparison. It's hand and arm strength that have diminished with age and c-spine problems.

Not sure how loud the 4246's are but the DS60 has a fair amount of noise. Seems about every hour or two it spins up louder. Thought it was because it was to warm but the cool air on the intake is pretty cold. Good luck

@@TheDamaddog ok, thank you for the insight. I may just stay with the 4246. I have 4 of them and they are shockingly quiet. Just trying to regain some rack space.

Sorry don't know if it supports SATA-3. I am sure you can look up the specs on their website. But will warn you putting drives in this device that do not come from the manufacture I am sure will void any support or warranty.

Maybe spray some WD-40 on them for a few hours and then try it.

No actually you can just remove the battery pack. The system will alert and say battery decrease but nothing on the system is affected. When you put the pack back in you will again get alerted that the battery count increased.

@@TheDamaddog and one question my server not down right?

@@suchartsanthithaweechai1844 not to sure what you are asking? This is a room UPS, should you shutdown your servers when doing this work? You could to be totally sure there is not a problem. But I never have done that when I replace a battery pack. The UPS keeps working and there is no interruption in power while doing this work.

@@TheDamaddog Does this mean I have to turn off the server before replacing the battery ups?

@@suchartsanthithaweechai8381 again I don't know why you would turn off a server to replace a battery pack on a large UPS like this. A battery pack like this is part of a unit that has over 60 battery packs in it. Removing one pack at a time will have no affect on the power going to any of the possible hundreds of servers connected to this UPS. Now if you are replacing a battery on a smaller rack UPS or personal UPS then yes you should shut down any servers connected to this UPS. But if that is the case you are looking at the wrong video.

Are you talking about the three bolts that you need to put in from under the hood? If so the key is that you need to twist the whole strut so that they line up on top. Easiest if you use a jack to hold or have a second person. The second person is best best they can be looking on the top and try to insert the first bolt while someone else twists the strut.

How so?

So I didn't get on mine but have talked to many others that think it is a good idea.

So I am also in Michigan (Ann Arbor area). I had just under 120,000 miles. Should have done earlier. They were pretty hard to break the bolts loose but I was able to do it myself.

Yes it should be the same. I think even that 2020's are the same.

Sorry I do not.

@@TheDamaddog ok. Thank you. One more question. Is there anything specific that I need to be aware of? I ask because I’ve done both front assemblies, however, on the driver side (was the good side) is now making a popping/clicking noise when I turn the wheel. The original bad side was the passenger side but it seems to be all good. I’ve gone through it twice. What am I missing? Over torquing?

Not really sure. A popping noise is different. Let me do.some research on torque and see if that could causing a problem. Did you use a torque wrench to tighten the nuts up? If so what did you torque it to?

@@TheDamaddog no I don’t have a torque wrench. The 2 main bolts from strut to knuckle I tightened really tight. Breaking them free was very difficult so I assumed they needed to be tightened way down. Same with the sway bar to upper strut. Not as tight as the lower 2 but tight non the lass.
