USER GUIDE

SATA Hard Drive Removal and 
Replacement Procedure for 
NI 8260 4-Drive Storage Module

This document provides instructions for removing and replacing a SATA 
hard drive with your NI 8260 4-Drive Storage Module.

Cautions

Before you handle the NI 8260 or the hard drive, discharge any built-up static 

charge that may have accumulated. Electrostatic discharge may damage the NI 8260 and/or 
the hard drive.

Avoid mounting the hard drive near strong magnetic sources such as loud speakers. Ensure 
that the hard drive is not affected by external magnetic fields.

Protect the hard drive and NI 8260 from hard contact with other objects. Impacts may 
damage the equipment.

Do not press the cover of the hard drive. Pressing it too hard may cause cover and spindle 
motor contact, which would damage the hard drive.

When handling the hard drive, do not touch the printed circuit board. Hold the hard drive 
by its edges.

Removing a Hard Drive

Notes

You will need to remove Drive 1 before you can remove Drive 0 (Drive 0 is the 

bottom drive).

If it is difficult to remove the hard drive, loosen 

all

 of the screws holding the installed 

hard drives.
