Removing Capacity (or Drives)
You may wish to remove one or more drives from your Drobo 5N2, thereby reducing overall capacity.
Before doing so, keep the following in mind:
●
Your Drobo device requires a minimum of
two
drives, or
three
drives if you are using Dual Disk
Redundancy, to ensure your data is protected. See
●
Remove only one drive at a time while your Drobo device is powered on, giving your Drobo
device the opportunity afterwards to rearrange your data into the safest configuration across the
remaining drives.
●
If you would like to remove all drives from your Drobo device, first safely shutdown your Drobo
device, and then unplug the power.
●
Data stored on drives removed from your Drobo device cannot be read by other systems.
1.
Ensure the drive lights on your Drobo device are
not
blinking yellow and green, which indicates
that your Drobo device is working to protect your data. Wait until the blinking stops.
Warning:
Removing a drive during this process may result in loss of data.
2.
If you are removing all drives from your Drobo device, first safely shut it down and unplug it from
the power source.
Warning:
Not shutting down safely may result in loss of data.
3.
Remove the bezel (faceplate) from the front of your Drobo device by pulling it off.
4.
Use your thumb to depress (and open) the drive lock for the drive bay that contains the drive you
would like to remove. Refer to the image below.
