Attention:
• To avoid damage to the hard disk drive connectors, make sure that the server cover is in place and fully
closed whenever you install or remove a hard disk drive.
• To ensure adequate system cooling, do not operate the server for more than two minutes without either
a hard disk drive or a filler installed in each bay.
To remove a simple-swap hard disk drive, do the following:
Step 1. Turn off the server. Then, disconnect all external cables and remove all peripheral devices.
Step 2. Remove the security bezel. See “Removing the security bezel” on page 91.
Step 3. Remove a simple-swap hard disk drive.
• For the 2.5-inch drive, slide the release latch 1 to the left and pull the hard disk drive out of the
drive bay at the same time.
