Appendix A “Important safety information” on page 97.
You can install or replace a storage drive in the front-access storage enclosure. The storage drive also can
be hot-swappable, which means that you can install or replace the drive without even turning off your
computer. Therefore, lock the enclosure cover to prevent the unexpected removal. The keys are attached at
the rear of the computer. Store the keys in a secure place.
The storage drive in the front-access storage enclosure is hot-swappable only when the following
requirements are met:

information.

computer is turned on. Otherwise, data on the storage drive might get damaged.
