Lenovo NeXtScale nx360 M5, Installation And Service Manual, Page: 184 / 1022

Notes:
1. After you install the hard disk drive, check the disk drive status LEDs to verify that the hard
disk drive is operating correctly. If the yellow hard disk drive status LED is lit continuously, that
drive is faulty and must be replaced. If the green hard disk drive activity LED is flashing, the
drive is being accessed.
2. If the server is configured for RAID operation through an optional ServeRAID adapter, you
might have to reconfigure your disk arrays after you install hard disk drives. See the ServeRAID
documentation on the
Lenovo ServeRAID Support CD for additional information about RAID
operation and complete instructions for using ServeRAID manager.
After you install the hard disk drive backplate, complete the following steps:
1. Install the cover onto the compute node (see “Installing the compute node cover” on page 115 for
instructions).
2. Install the compute node into the chassis (see “Installing a compute node in a chassis” on page 105
for instructions).
Removing a 1.8-inch hard disk drive
Use this information to remove a 1.8-inch hard disk drive.
Attention: Static electricity that is released to internal server components when the server is powered-on
might cause the server to halt, which might result in the loss of data. To avoid this potential problem,
always use an electrostatic-discharge wrist strap or other grounding system when you work inside the
server with the power on.
To remove a 1.8-inch hard disk drive, complete the following steps.
Step 1. Read “Safety” on page v and “Installation guidelines” on page 101.
Step 2. If the compute node is installed in a NeXtScale n1200 Enclosure, remove it (see “Removing a
compute node from a chassis” on page 104 for instructions).
Step 3. Carefully lay the compute node on a flat, static-protective surface, orienting the compute node
with the bezel pointing toward you.
Step 4. Remove the cover (see “Removing the compute node cover” on page 113).
Step 5. Pull the plunger of the 1.8-inch hard disk drive cage outward and rotate the cage upward.
