CAUTION:
CAUTION: Wear an anti-static wrist ground strap whenever handling components such as
the hard drive of an Avaya S8500 server. Connect the strap to an approved
ground, such as an unpainted metal surface. Also, place the hard drive on an
anti-static mat that is similarly grounded. Do not place the new or the old drive on
a bare surface.
Removing the hard drive from the failed S8500 server
For these steps, see Removing and replacing the drive cage (S8500) on page 26.
1. Locate the drive cage in the left-hand corner of the front of the server.
2. Use the two black pull handles on the ribbon cables to unplug the data connectors from the
back of the CD-ROM and hard drive.
3. Push the ribbon cable back out of the way.
4. Unplug the two power connectors from the back of the CD-ROM drive and the hard drive.
You must release the power connector on the CD-ROM drive by gently bending the side
spring clip holding it in place.
5. Loosen the captive screw next to the drive cage.
6. Slide the drive cage toward the back of the server to clear the retaining hooks.
7. Place the drive cage on the antistatic mat.
8. Remove the four screws (two on each side) securing the hard drive in the drive cage and
remove the hard drive.
