Hard disk drive
The factory-installed hard disk drive is formatted and loaded with system software, network drivers, and printer fonts. The
hard disk drive is also used to store spooled print jobs. Available space on the hard disk drive is displayed in
Command WorkStation.
If you replace the hard disk drive with a new one, you must restore the backup (see
) or install system software as
described on
. (Spare hard disk drives are not shipped with preinstalled system software.)
It is unlikely that both the hard disk drive and the motherboard are defective. Avoid replacing both to solve one problem. If
troubleshooting strategies (such as checking cables and connections; see
) do not solve the problem, and you
suspect either the hard disk drive or the motherboard is at fault, use the following order to troubleshoot: replace the hard
disk drive, install system software, and then check to see if the problem persists. If it does, perform other procedures, such
as replacing the motherboard (see
).
Proper handling
•
Use proper ESD practices when grounding yourself and the E-45.
•
Keep magnets and magnetic-sensitive objects away from the hard disk drive.
•
Do not remove the screws on top of the hard disk drive. Loosening these screws voids the warranty.
•
Never drop, jar, bump, or put excessive pressure on the hard disk drive.
•
Handle the hard disk drive by its sides and avoid touching the printed circuit board.
•
Allow the hard disk drive to reach room temperature before installation.
Important:
Do not replace the hard disk drive and the motherboard at the same time. Doing so in the wrong order,
without updating the system (see
), will cause the system to malfunction.
Important:
Improper handling can damage a hard disk drive. Handle the hard disk drive with extreme care.
