Upgrading the Hardware—Sun Cobalt Control Station

If the Sun Cobalt Control Station is mounted on an equipment rack, remove the
control station from the rack and take it to a service area. Do not attempt this
upgrade while the Sun Cobalt Control Station is still in the equipment rack.
Before replacing the hard disk drive, make sure that you have the following:
•
a hard disk drive that meets the specifications in Table 1.
•
a #2 Phillips screwdriver
Overview

Caution:
Ensure that you are installing a hard disk drive of the
same capacity as the one you are replacing.
!
Caution:
Wear an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding wrist
strap.
Warning:
Do not swap hard disk drives from one Sun Cobalt
Control Station to another. Also, do not install a drive, that was
previously partitioned for RAID, in a Sun Cobalt Control Station as
an additional (non-RAIDed) drive.

Note:
If you have to replace an original hard disk drive (meaning a
hard disk drive that Sun Microsystems installed in the server),
