Attention:

• Touch the static-protective package that contains the drive to any unpainted metal surface on the server;
then, remove the drive from the package and place it on a static-protective surface.
• To avoid damage to the drive connectors, make sure that the server top cover is in place and fully closed
whenever you install or remove a drive.
• Make sure you save the data on your drive, especially if it is part of a RAID array.
• Before you remove or make changes to drives, drive controllers (including controllers that are integrated
on the system board), drive backplanes or drive cables, back up all important data that is stored on drives.
• For proper system cooling, do not operate the server for more than 2 minutes without either a drive or a
filler panel installed in each bay.
Notes:
• Locate the documentation that comes with the drive and follow those instructions in addition to the
instructions in this chapter.
• The drive bays are numbered to indicate the installation order (starting from number “0”). Follow the
installation order when you install a drive. See “Front view” on page 14 .
• The drives in a single RAID array must be the same type, same size, and same capacity.
