NOTE: Store the hard drive blank for future use.
To install a hard drive blank, simply align the blank with the empty bay and slide the
blank into the bay until the locking button engages.
SCSI ID Numbers
The server blade hot-plug SCSI hard drives have unique SCSI IDs that the system
automatically sets. The IDs number from top to bottom on each server blade.
IMPORTANT: Always populate hard drive bays starting with SCSI ID 0 (the top bay).
Removing Hot-Plug SCSI Hard Drives
Before removing hot-plug SCSI hard drives, back up all server data on the hard drive.
CAUTION: Before removing a hot-plug SCSI hard drive, use the LEDs to
determine the status of the drive. Refer to the “Hot-Plug SCSI Hard Drive”
section in Chapter 1, “Server Blade Component Identification.”
