12 Replacing a Drive in an E2600 Controller-Drive Tray
In this procedure, you will replace a failed drive with a new drive.
Before you start to replace a drive in the controller-drive tray, gather antistatic protection and
a replacement drive.
You can determine whether you have a failed drive in two ways:
– The Recovery Guru directs you to replace a failed drive.
– You locate the failed drive by checking the Drive Service Action Required LED (Figure 1
on page 2).
1. If possible, use the storage management software to create, save, and print a new
storage array profile.
2. Did the Recovery Guru direct you to replace a failed drive?
– Yes
Go to step 3.
– No
Run the Recovery Guru to identify the failed component.
3. Put on antistatic protection.
4. Unpack the new drive.
– Set the new drive on a dry, level surface near the controller-drive tray.
– Save all the packing materials in case you need to return the drive.
If a fault is detected, the amber Drive Service Action Required LED is on. If you can safely
remove the drive, the blue Service Action Allowed LED is on (Figure 1).
CAUTION!
Possible equipment damage
You must replace the drive within three minutes after removal to prevent the possibility of
overheating the equipment.
CAUTION!
Possible loss of data access
Never insert drives into the controller-drive tray without first confirming that the drive
firmware level is compatible with the other drives. Inserting a drive with an incorrect firmware
level can cause loss of data access. For information about the supported drive firmware levels,
contact a Customer and Technical Support representative.
CAUTION!
Possible loss of data access
Magnetic fields can destroy all data on the drive and cause irreparable damage to the drive
circuitry. To avoid the loss of data access and damage to the drives, always keep drives away
from magnetic devices.
CAUTION!
Possible hardware damage
To prevent electrostatic discharge damage to the tray, use proper antistatic protection when
handling tray components.
NOTICE!
Install only drives that are specifically designed for your controller-drive tray and that have
been tested and qualified by the factory.
