1.4 Upgrading the ISE Storage Devices
The system’s storage capacity can be increased by:
•
Replacing an ISE with one that has a larger storage capacity
•
Installing a second storage device on a 3.5-inch ISE
The following sections describe how to upgrade the ISE storage devices.
1.4.1 Removing ISEs
To upgrade a system, it may be necessary to remove an ISE. To remove an ISE,
use the following procedures.
CAUTION
Static electricity can damage integrated circuits. Always use the
antistatic wrist strap and antistatic pad found in the static-protective
field service kit (29-26246-00) when working with the internal parts of
a computer system.
Handle ISEs with care. Dropping or bumping the ISE can damage the
disk surface. Carry or hold the ISE by the underside of the lower metal
bracket to avoid damage to the drive module.
