8.4 Managing Drives
The R50 primary drive bay is mounted on internal rails and slides out from the system. The NVMe drive bay is
accessed by removing the NVMe fan on the rear of the system. Hard drives are installed directly into the system
without any additional drive trays. NVMe drives use detachable trays to mount and secure the drive in the system.
8.4.1 Handling the Primary Drive Bay
To secure the drive bay and prevent it from accidentally opening, tighten the captive thumbscrews on the front of
the system (
1
). The included key can also lock the drive bay and prevent unauthorized access (
2
).
Open the drive bay by unlocking the front (
1
), loosening the captive thumbscrews (
2
), and using the handles (
3
) to
pull the bay forward.
To insert the drive bay back into the system, slide the blue release catches on each rail and push the bay forward.
