If you have only one SSD, you cannot remove it while the firewall is powered on.
Caution
You cannot swap SSDs between different platforms. For example, you cannot use a 2100 series SSD in a
3100 series model. If you are swapping SSDs between two Secure Firewall 3100s, use the remove-secure
local disk command, otherwise sometimes the SED (self-encrypting drive) gets locked. If you get an error
message that the SED is locked, you can enter the PSID and the system clears the SED and creates a new set
of keys. To avoid this situation, especially if you do not know what the PSIDs are, always use the
remove-secure local disk when removing SSDs. See Hot Swap an SSD on the Secure Firewall 3100/4200
for the procedures for safely removing an SSD.
Caution
See Product ID Numbers, on page 33 for a list of the PIDs associated with the Secure Firewall 3100 SSDs.
