Removing a non-hot-swap hard disk drive
Attention: Do not open your server or attempt any repair before reading and understanding the “Safety information”
on page iii and “Guidelines” on page 85.
This topic provides instructions on how to remove a non-hot-swap hard disk drive.
Before you begin, consider the following hard-disk-drive installation rules:
• Follow the order of the hard-disk-drive bays when installing a hard disk drive. See “Server components”
on page 25 to locate the hard-disk-drive bays in your server.
• For RAID configuration, the hard disk drives must be the same type with the same capacity if they are
within a single RAID array. For more information, see “Configuring RAID” on page 73.
• For hard disk drives with different capacities, install the hard disk drive with the lowest capacity first.
Before you begin, print all the related instructions or ensure that you can view the PDF version on another
computer for reference.
Note: Depending on the model, your server might look slightly different from the illustrations in this topic.
To remove a non-hot-swap hard disk drive, do the following:
1. Remove all media from the drives and turn off all attached devices and the server. Then, disconnect all
power cords from electrical outlets and disconnect all cables that are connected to the server.
