Removing a hot-swap hard disk drive
This procedure applies only to server models that have hot-swap hard disk drives.
Attention: To maintain proper system cooling, do not operate the server for more
than 10 minutes without either a drive or a filler panel installed in each drive bay.
To remove a hot-swap hard disk drive, complete the following steps.
1. Read the safety information that begins on page vii and “Installation guidelines”
on page 73.
Note: You do not have to turn off the server to remove hot-swap drives from
the hot-swap drive bays.
2. Unlock the side cover. The side cover does not have to be removed.
3. Remove the lower bezel (see “Removing the lower bezel” on page 79).
4. Rotate the drive tray handle of the drive assembly to be removed to the open
position.
5. Grasp the handle of the drive assembly to be replaced and pull the assembly
out of the bay.
6. If you are instructed to return the drive assembly, follow all packaging
instructions, and use any packaging materials for shipping that are supplied to
you.
