storage drive:
1. Make sure the necessary precautions have been observed as per the previous
Note (see “Operation” on page 2-17).
2. Locate the drive to be removed.
3. Insert the barrel lock key into the hard drive you want to remove, and turn it
45 degrees clockwise (presuming the storage drive is locked).
4. Firmly push in the latch lock until the latch handle releases from the drive.
5. Grab the latch handle and pull the drive completely away from its slot.
Note: Since RES-12XR3-S storage drives are “hot-swappable”, it is not neces-
sary to turn off system power in order to remove and replace a drive (except the
operating system drive). However, after a warning has been broadcast to all users,
the drive being replaced should be dismounted before being removed.
Consult your operating system manual for specific details.
Caution: When pulling the storage drive from the chassis, hold it at the bot-
tom to prevent it from falling and damaging the drive.
