NVMe SSD components
The NVMe SSD is a PCIe bus device. A device attached to a PCIe bus cannot be removed without
allowing the device and bus to complete and cease the signal/traffic flow.
CAUTION:
Do not remove an NVMe SSD from the drive bay while the Do Not Remove
button LED is flashing. The Do Not Remove button LED flashes to indicate the device is still in
use. Removal of the NVMe SSD before the device has completed and ceased signal/traffic
flow can cause loss of data.
