2. Install the hard disk drive in the hot-swap bay:
a. Ensure the tray handle is open (that is, perpendicular to the drive).
b. Align the rails on the drive assembly with the guide rails in the drive bay.
c. Gently push the drive assembly into the bay until the drive connects to the
backplane.
d. Push the tray handle toward the closed position until it locks the drive in
place.
3. If you installed a half-high hard disk drive, install a slim filler in the gap above the
drive:
a. Locate the slim filler that is designed for use with these half-high drives. It is
stored on the empty tray of the filler panel that you removed earlier in this
procedure.
b. Pull the slim filler off the filler panel.
c. Gently push the slim filler into place in the gap above the drive.
4. Check the hard disk drive status indicators to verify that the hard disk drives are
operating properly (see “Server controls and indicators” on page 6 for the location
of the status indicators).
•
When the amber light is on continuously, the drive has failed.
•
If you have a RAID adapter installed:
— When the green light flashes slowly (one flash per second), the drive is
being rebuilt.
— When the green light flashes rapidly (three flashes per second), the
controller is identifying the drive.
Note:
If your server has a RAID adapter installed, refer to the information provided
with the RAID adapter for information about adding a drive.
Replacing a drive in a hot-swap bay
You do not have to turn off the server to remove or install the hot-swap drives.
Attention:
1. Before you remove a hot-swap hard disk drive that is not defective, back up all
important data.
2. To avoid damage to a hard disk drive, DO NOT remove the drive from the hot-
swap bay until it has had time to spin down (approximately 30 seconds). Handle
the drive carefully.
3. Before you replace a hot-swap drive, make sure it is defective. If you partially or
completely remove a good drive instead of a defective one, your server might lose
valuable data.
This situation is especially relevant if your server has a RAID adapter installed
and you assigned RAID level 1 or 5 to the logical drives in your disk array. The
RAID adapter can rebuild the data that you need, provided that certain
conditions are met. Refer to the information provided with the RAID adapter for
further details.
Refer to the following illustration of the tower model while you perform the steps in
this procedure.
Note:
The illustrations in this document might differ slightly from your hardware.
