Note
When a disk module is replaced, the new disk inherits the group properties of
the original disk. For example, if you replace a disk that was part of LUN 1, the
replacement will also become part of LUN 1. If the disk is a replacement for a
global hot spare or an unassigned disk, the replacement will become a global
hot spare or an unassigned disk.
A special feature called drive lockout prevents unsupported disk drives from
being used in the disk array. If an unsupported disk drive is installed in the disk
array, the drive will be failed. Locked out drives will be indicated with a special
drive status (0x1B).
Removing a Disk Module or Filler Module
1. Unlock and open the disk enclosure door.
2. If removing a disk module, insert the plug end of your ESD wrist strap in the disk
3. Release the module by squeezing the latch tab (B in
) and sliding the module
part way out of the enclosure.

AUTION
While the disk is spinning, it is vulnerable to damage. Wait for the disk to stop
spinning (about 15 seconds) before fully removing the module from the
enclosure.
WARNING
To avoid electric shock hazard, do not touch the backplane or
adjacent drive electronics when removing and inserting disks.
4. Slide the module out of the slot until you can grasp the handle (C). Support the disk
module with your other hand around the enclosed side.
Note
When removing adjacent disk modules, removing them from right to left
improves access to successive modules.
