Figure 6-4. Removing/Installing Serial ATA Drives
2. Installing/removing hot-swap Serial ATA drives
Two Serial ATA drive bays are located in the front of the chassis, making
them easily accessible for installation and removal. These drives are hot-
swappable, meaning they can be installed and removed without powering
down the system. To remove, first push the release button located
beside the drive LEDs, then swing the colored handle fully out and use it
to pull the unit straight out (see Figure 6-4).
!
Important: Regardless of how many Serial ATA drives
are installed, both drive carriers must remain in the
drive bays to maintain proper airflow.
