Installing a 3.5-inch simple-swap hard disk drive
Use this information to install a 3.5-inch simple-swap hard disk drive.
Before installing a 3.5-inch simple-swap hard disk drive, read the following information:
• Inspect the drive tray for signs of damage.
• To maintain proper system cooling, do not operate the server for more than 10 minutes without either a
drive or a filler panel installed in each drive bay.
Read the safety information in “Safety” on page v and “Installation guidelines” on page 29.
If you are replacing a server component in the server, you need to turn off the server and peripheral devices,
and disconnect the power cords and all external cables.
To install a 3.5-inch simple-swap hard disk drive, complete the following steps.
Step 1.
Turn off the server.
Step 2.
Unlock the left-side cover.
Note:
You must unlock the left-side cover to open or remove the bezel. When you lock the left-side
cover, it locks both the cover and the bezel.
Step 3.
Open the bezel (see “Opening the bezel door” on page 47).
Step 4.
Remove the filler panel, if one is present.
Step 5.
Touch the static-protective package that contains the disk drive to any unpainted metal surface on
the server; then, remove the disk drive from the package and place it on a static-protective surface.
Step 6.
Grasp the black drive handle and slide the blue release latch to the right and align the drive
assembly with the guide rail in the bay.
