Removing and installing a hard disk drive
Note:
Use only Acer-qualified SAS or SATA2 HDDs. To purchase a
SAS or SATA2 HDD, contact your local Acer representative.
Caution!
To ensure proper airflow and server cooling, all drive
bays must contain either a carrier with a hard drive installed in it
or a hard disk carrier cover.

drive status. If you are replacing a failed HDD, determine which drive
has failed by checking the drive status LED. For more information on
how to determine the drive status, refer to “Hot-plug HDD LED
indicator” on page 16.

remove the front bezel” section on page 29.
