81Installation and Service Guide Color Controller E-46A
Replacing parts
Hard disk drive problems may be caused by the following:
• Loose or faulty connections
• Faulty data or power cable
• Faulty hard disk drive
The hard disk drive is mounted inside a bracket (see Figure 41 on page 83).
If you are replacing the hard disk drive with a new one, you will need:
• The appropriate system software and documentation for the E-46A that you are servicing.
• A compatible version of the user software for the networked computers that will print to the E-46A.
To remove the hard disk drive
1 If you are removing the hard disk drive in order to install a new drive, give the site administrator the opportunity to
print the Job Log and save any custom simulations. If possible, create a system backup (page 88), and print the
Configuration page and Font List.
2 Shut down and open the E-46A (see page 51).
To access the hard disk drive, you must remove the left panel.
3 Remove the power supply cable from the hard disk drive.
4 Remove the hard disk drive data cable from the hard disk drive.
5 Remove the screw securing the hard disk drive bracket to the bracket shelf.
6 Slide the hard disk drive bracket off the shelf and lift it out of the chassis.
Unlock the hard disk drive bracket by moving the latch toward the connector panel, and then sliding the bracket off
the bracket shelf.
Note: You will encounter slight resistance as you slide the bracket off the shelf. The resistance is caused by two
tension points on the bottom of the bracket. The resistance helps control the bracket’s movement during removal
and installation.
Make sure that you attach an ESD grounding wrist strap and follow standard ESD precautions
before handling E-46A components.
Avoid striking the DIMMs as you remove the hard disk drive bracket.
