Prerequisites
CAUTION: Many repairs may only be done by a certied service technician. You should only perform troubleshooting and
simple repairs as authorized in your product documentation, or as directed by the online or telephone service and support
team. Damage due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is not covered by your warranty. Read and follow the safety
instructions that are shipped with your product.
CAUTION: Use only hard drives that have been tested and approved for use with the hard drive backplane.
CAUTION: Combining SAS and SATA hard drives in the same RAID volume is not supported.
CAUTION: When installing a hard drive, ensure that the adjacent drives are fully installed. Inserting a hard drive carrier
and attempting to lock its handle next to a partially installed carrier can damage the partially installed carrier's shield
spring and make it unusable.
CAUTION: To prevent data loss, ensure that your operating system supports hot-swap drive installation. See the
documentation supplied with your operating system.
CAUTION: When a replacement hot swappable hard drive is installed and the system is powered on, the hard drive
automatically begins to rebuild. Make absolutely sure that the replacement hard drive is blank or contains data that you
wish to have over-written. Any data on the replacement hard drive is immediately lost after the hard drive is installed.
NOTE: Hot swappable hard drives are supplied in hot swappable hard drive carriers that t in the hard drive slots.
1. If installed, remove the front bezel.
