Figure d3mw1021 not displayed.

To install a drive in a hot-swap hard drive bay:

Attention:

  1. Remove the filler panel from one of the empty hot-swap drive bays by inserting your finger into the depression at the left side of the filler panel and pulling it away from the appliance.
    Note:If you are installing a half-high hard drive, you will need to remove two adjacent filler panels. The two filler panels should be from either the top pair of drive bays, the middle pair of drive bays, or the bottom pair of drive bays.
  2. Install the hard drive in the hot-swap drive bay:
    1. Ensure that the tray handle is open (that is, perpendicular to the hard drive).
    2. Align the rails on the hard drive assembly with the guide rails in the drive bay.
    3. Gently push the hard drive assembly into the drive bay until the hard drive connects to the backplane.
    4. Push the tray handle toward the closed position until it locks the hard drive in place.
  3. If you installed a half-high hard disk drive, install a slim filler in the gap above the hard drive:
    1. Locate the slim filler that is designed for use with these half-high hard drives. It is stored on the empty tray of the filler panel that you removed earlier in this procedure.
    2. Pull the slim filler off the filler panel.
    3. Gently push the slim filler into place in the gap above the hard drive.
  4. Check the hard drive status indicators to verify that the hard drives are operating properly (the Hard Drive Status LED is immediately to the right of the hard disk drive).
Note:If your appliance has a RAID adapter installed, refer to the information provided with the RAID adapter for information about adding a hard drive.

Replacing a hot-swap hard drive

You do not have to switch off the appliance to remove or install the hot-swap hard drives.

Attention:

  1. Before you replace a hot-swap hard drive, check the Hard Drive Status LED on the front of the drive to see if the drive is defective (if the drive is defective, the LED will be amber). If you partially or completely remove a good drive instead of a defective one, you might lose valuable data.

    This situation is especially relevant because your appliance has a RAID adapter installed. The RAID adapter can rebuild the data that you need, provided that certain conditions are met.

  2. Before you remove a hot-swap hard drive that is not defective, back up all important data.
  3. To avoid damage to a hard drive, pull on the release lever to disengage the hard drive connector from the backplane at the back of the drive bay, wait approximately 30 seconds to allow the hard drive to spin down, and then completely remove it from the bay.
