Installing a hot-swap hard disk drive

To install a hot-swap hard disk drive, complete the following steps.

Note:

If your server has only one hot-swap hard disk drive, install it in the left or upper-left drive bay.

Attention:

To avoid damage to the hard disk drive connectors, make sure that the server cover is in

place and fully closed whenever you install or remove a hard disk drive.
1.

Read the safety information in “Important Safety Information” on page 1 and “Guidelines for trained
service technicians” on page 115.

2.

Make sure that the server cover is in place and fully closed.
Attention:

To maintain proper system cooling, do not operate the server for more than 10 minutes

without either a drive or filler panel installed in each bay.

3.

Remove the filler panel from the empty drive bay if necessary.

4.

Touch the static-protective package that contains the drive to any unpainted metal surface on the
server. Then, remove the drive from the static-protective package and place it on a static-protective
surface.

5.

Install the hard disk drive in the hot-swap bay:
a.

Make sure that the tray handle is open (that is, perpendicular to the front of the drive).

b.

Align the drive assembly 3 with the guide rails in the bay.
