Accessing the drive bays
Since SATA/SAS drives have hot-plug capability, you do not need to
access the inside of the chassis or power down the system to install or
replace SATA/SAS drives. Access the HDD bay door as follows:
1
Unlock the drive bay door.
2
Open the HDD bay door as shown.
Note: The operating system you use must have RAID support to
enable the hot-plug capability of the SATA drives.
Caution! When working around the SATA backplane, do not
touch the backplane with any metal objects and make sure no
cables touch the backplane. Also, regardless of how many SATA
drives are installed, all four drive carriers must remain in the
chassis to maintain proper airflow.
