Hot-swapping a SCSI drive
A bank of five green LEDs on the front panel monitors the drive status of
each drive in the hard drive cages. Each LED corresponds directly to a drive,
so that the LED on the far left reflects an error condition of the drive on the
far left. The five LEDs and corresponding drives are numbered (left to right)
zero through four. When a green LED is on continuously (indicating a bad
drive), you can hot-swap (replace) the drive. You do not need to shut the
system down to hot-swap a drive.
To hot-swap a SCSI drive:
1
Open the computer door.
2
Open the metal door protecting the hard drive cages.
3
Check the bank of green LEDs on the front panel to determine which
drive is bad.
4
Pull up on the bottom of the plastic latch and gently pull up on the carrier
handle, disengaging the latch that secures the carrier to the cage.
5
Grasp the plastic carrier handle and pull it toward you to disengage the
drive connector from the backplane connector.
