CAUTION
: Mixing hard drives from previous generations of PowerEdge servers is not
supported.
CAUTION
: Combining SAS and SATA hard drives in the same RAID volume is not
supported.
CAUTION
: When installing a hard drive, ensure that the adjacent drives are fully
installed. Inserting a hard drive carrier and attempting to lock its handle next to a
partially installed carrier can damage the partially installed carrier's shield spring and
make it unusable.
CAUTION
: To prevent data loss, ensure that your operating system supports hot-swap
drive installation. See the documentation supplied with your operating system.
CAUTION
: When a replacement hot swappable drive is installed and the system is
powered on, the drive automatically begins to rebuild. Ensure that the replacement
drive is blank or contains data that you wish to overwrite. Any data on the
replacement drive is immediately lost after the drive is installed.
