About replacement drives
Replacement disk drives must meet certain criteria. In the event of a drive failure, replacement drives are
available from Harmonic.
IMPORTANT:
Use ONLY Harmonic-supplied replacement disk drives. Disk drives from
any other source will be excluded from coverage under the Harmonic product limited
warranty and maintenance services programs. In addition, any errors or damages caused
by the use of disk drives provided from any other source will cause the entire product to
be excluded from coverage under the Harmonic product limited warranty and maintenance
services programs.
NOTE:
Replacement drives should have the same or greater drive capacity as those they
are replacing, and their form factor must match the other drives in the enclosure.
If you wish to install a Harmonic-supplied drive model that is not supported by your current version
of Spectrum firmware, you may need to install a “DDC” configuration file to your video server, which
enables you to install and use the new drive. For details, see “Installing a DDC file” in the
Harmonic
SystemManager User Guide.
Be sure that you have a replacement drive on hand before removing the failed drive. You may wish to
have more than one replacement drive on hand in case the first is not responsive.
