Removing a solid state drive
Use this information to remove a solid state drive.
The blade server has a solid state drive expansion card for installing or removing solid state drives. To
remove a solid state drive, complete the following steps:
Step 1. Before you begin, read “Safety” on page v and “Installation guidelines” on page 65.
Step 2. If the blade server or scalable blade complex is installed in a BladeCenter chassis, remove it. See
“Removing the blade server from the BladeCenter chassis” on page 66 for instructions.
Step 3. Carefully lay the blade server on a flat, static-protective surface.
Step 4. Open the blade server cover (see “Removing the blade server cover” on page 71 for instructions).
Step 5. If an optional expansion unit is installed, remove the expansion unit (see “Removing an expansion
unit” on page 96 for instructions).
Note:
Optional expansion units are not supported when a IBM MAX5 expansion blade is installed.
Step 6. If you are removing the SSD expansion card from a blade server that is the bottom blade server in a
scalable blade complex, disassemble the blade complex (see “Disassembling a scalable blade
complex” on page 68 for instructions).
Step 7. If an IBM MAX5 expansion blade is installed, remove it (see “Removing an IBM MAX5 expansion
blade” on page 87 for instructions).
Step 8. If a CFFh expansion card is installed, remove it (see “Removing a CFFh expansion card” on page
119 for instructions).
Step 9. Remove the SSD expansion card (see “Removing an SSD expansion card” on page 98 for
instructions).
Step 10. Turn over the SSD expansion card.
Step 11. Press down on the blue tab. The retention lever automatically opens so that the solid state drive or
drives are accessible.
Step 12. Slide the solid state drive out of the slot.
Note:
When you remove a drive from the SSD expansion card, consider labeling the drive to
indicate the slot from which the drive was removed so that you can install the drive back in to the
same slot.
Step 13. Close the retention lever and secure it with the blue tab.
Note:
You might have to press the blue tab before you close the retention lever.
Step 14. If you are instructed to return the solid state drive, follow all packaging instructions, and use any
packaging materials for shipping that are supplied to you.
