Only remove an HDD/SSD module during operation if the drive is not
currently being accessed. Observe the indicators for the
corresponding HDD/SSD modules, see section "Indicators on the

An HDD/SSD module can be replaced while the system is in
operation.
RAID configuration with a RAID controller:
Only RAID level 1, 1E, 10, 5, 50, 6 or 60 is allowed.
RAID configuration without a RAID controller:
