REMOVAL/REPLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS

PROBLEM OVERVIEW: Disk failure

WHAT STATE SHOULD THE SYSTEM BE IN TO BE READY TO PERFORM THE RESOLUTION ACTIVITY? :

A data backup is not a pre-requisite but is a wise precaution.
The customer should conduct an orderly software system shutdown.

 WHAT ACTIONS ARE REQUIRED:

Perform the following procedures to remove and replace a hard drive.

Note – When removing or replacing a hard drive, drive slot 1 is in the bottom position of the hard drive bracket. Drive slot 2 is in the upper position of the hard drive bracket.
Note – If only one hard drive is installed on the workstation or if you only want to boot from a specific drive, that hard drive must be installed in drive slot 1 in the bottom position of the hard drive bracket.

Removing a Hard Drive
1. Power off the workstation, remove the access panel, and attach the antistatic wrist strap.

Caution – Use proper ESD grounding techniques when handling components. Wear an antistatic wrist strap and use an antistatic mat. Store ESD-sensitive components in antistatic bags before placing them on any surface.
2. Release the drive handle by pushing the handle release button toward the front of the chassis housing.
3. Pull out on the drive handle to disconnect the hard drive from the FC-AL backplane assembly connector.
4. Remove the hard drive from the hard drive bracket.
5. Place the hard drive on an antistatic mat.

Replacing a Hard Drive
