Procedure
1. Read all available safety information.
2. Use the slide rails to pull the enclosure out from the rack, as described in “Removing a 5U92 disk
enclosure from a rack” on page 69.
3. Remove the top cover, as described in “Removing the top cover” on page 21.
4. Locate the slot that contains the drive assembly that you want to remove.
Note: When a drive is faulty, the amber fault indicator is lit ( 3 in Figure 81 on page 83). Do not replace
a drive unless the drive fault indicator is on or you are instructed to do so by a fix procedure. When lit,
the green indicator shows that activity is occurring on the drive.
A label on the enclosure cover (Figure 82 on page 83) shows the location of the drive slots. The drive
slots are numbered 1-14 from left to right and A-G from the back to the front of the enclosure.
The drive locations are also marked on the enclosure itself. The rows (A-G) are marked on the left and
right edges of the enclosure. The columns (1-14) are marked on the front edge of the enclosure. The
row and column marks are visible when the top cover is removed.
