Addition of a single expansion cabinet to an ESA10000

Santa brought me a single expansion cabinet for our ESA10000 disk array, but
forgot to include in the purchase price the installation of the expansion
cab. from the company. Now they want me to pay per hour rates, with no real
cap on the cost.

We've managed to uncrate and locate the expansion cabinet near the existing
ESA10000 that is up and running on our production machine.

Can anyone tell me what the chances are of me installing this myself? I'm
assuming that all that has to be done for the existing HSZ70's to see the
expansion shelfs is to connect some kind of special SCSI cable between the
two units and restart the system (power-cycle, perhaps?) Is there more to it
than this? Has anyone else managed to install this themselves? Or is the
best advice just to pay for it and be done with it, or is it so pathetically
easy we can do it in 10 minutes?

Thanks for any advice.
