Warning
• Installing a drive deletes all data on the drive.
• Observe electrostatic discharge (ESD) procedures to avoid damage to components.
• Do not replace a drive without first bringing the storage pool offline in QES. You may
replace a drive online only when it is part of an array that has been configured for fault
tolerance and a predictive failure alert is received from QES. For more information,
refer to the QES user guide.
