Replacing disk drives
This section describes how to remove and replace the disk drives.
Note:
If you need to replace a gateway, you cannot move the disks to preserve your data. Each disk is encoded with
machine-level information and moving disks is not supported.
The SDI-5030 gateway is equipped with replaceable, hot-swappable, 3.5-inch hard-disk drives (HDD).
When replacing a drive, replace only one drive at a time. You must use approved disk drives. To order
disk drives, contact Riverbed Support at https://support.riverbed.com.
Note:
When you replace disk drives, you must wear a grounded ESD antistatic strap to protect the hardware against
electrostatic discharge. Make sure that the strap makes skin contact prior to handling equipment.
Caution:
Use caution when you remove or replace gateway components; they can become hot to the touch.
