Removing a drive
3. When the drive module partially ejects from the slot, grasp the module firmly, and carefully pull it straight
out of the drawer slot.
Take care not to drop the module.
Close a Drawer
1. Slide the drawer into the chassis along the drawer slide until it properly seats in the drawer bay.
2. Verify that there are not any loose cable wires protruding beyond the limits of the chain-flex cable.
3. Revolve the handle upwards such that it is flush with the drawer front panel in the stowed position.
4. Using a No. 2 Phillips screwdriver, tighten the two screws securing the handle to the front face of the
drawer.
5. Re-attach the bezel to the front of the chassis.
FDE Considerations
The Full Disk Encryption (FDE) feature available via the management interfaces requires use of self-
encrypting drives (SED) which are also referred to as FDE-capable drive modules. When installing FDE-
capable drive modules, follow the same procedures for installing drives that do not support FDE. The
exception occurs when you move FDE-capable drive modules for one or more drive groups to a different
system, which requires additional steps.
