Remove the drive tray by pulling it one inch away from the drive
bay. Wait for at least 30 seconds for the disk drive to spin down
(if the disk drive is removed for a different purpose, e.g., cloning
the members of a logical drive or Copy & Replace),
and then
gently and carefully withdraw the drive tray from the chassis. (See
Figure 5-18
