Installing/Removing HDD/Dummy Module FC Hard Disk Drives
● Never expose a HDD module to a temperature shock. Avoid the formation
of condensation inside and on the outside of the hard disk drives.
The hard disk drives may be expose only to defined temperature and
climatic conditions.
● Always put the HDD module down carefully, with its largest surface facing
downwards, to avoid the danger of tipping over.
7.2 Installing/Removing HDD/Dummy Module
V CAUTION!
Under no circumstances should you remove a HDD module while the
system is in operation if you are not sure that the hard disk drive is
operated by a RAID controller and belongs to a disk array which is
operating in RAID level 1 or 5.
V CAUTION!
The HDD modules must all be marked clearly (see also section “Identifi-
cation Marks and Loop Addresses” on page 43) so that they can be put
back into the original slots after an upgrade. If this is not taken into
account, existing data can be destroyed.
The hard disk drives which can be ordered for the PRIMERGY S60 storage
subsystem are delivered as HDD modules which include the hard disk drive pre-
installed in a carrier. Only a service technician may remove a hard disk drive
from the carrier.
Free slots are provided with a dummy module (an empty carrier) which must be
removed before installing an additional HDD module.
Removing the dummy module
Ê Press the upper and lower tabs on the dummy module together (see
figure 15 on page 39) until the locking mechanism disengages, and remove
the dummy module from the slot.
Installation of the dummy module occurs in reverse order.
