Replacing a Disk
In the case of a failed disk, the unit provides email alerts and status messages about the
need to replace a disk. ReadyNAS supports hot-swap bays, so you do not need to power
down your unit when replacing a disk.
To replace a disk on a 1500 or 2100:
1.
In the case of a failed disk, scan the disk LEDs on the control panel to identify the failed
disk.
2.
If necessary, unlock the tray, then press the disk release latch.
The tray handle pops out.
3.
Pull out the disk tray, remove the screws, remove the old disk, and replace it with a new
disk.
