Hot-plug hard drive guidelines

When adding hard drives to the server, observe the following general guidelines:

The system automatically sets all device numbers.

If only one hard drive is used, install it in the bay with the lowest device number.

Drives should be the same capacity to provide the greatest storage space efficiency when drives are
grouped together into the same drive array.

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of injury from electric shock, do not remove more than one drive

carrier at a time.
