Figure 9 Removing a SAS Disk Drive Blank
CAUTION: Always populate hard drive bays with a SAS disk drive or a disk drive blank.
Operating the server blade without a SAS disk drive or disk drive blank causes improper
airflow and cooling that can lead to thermal damage to the server blade.
To install a SAS disk drive:
1. Slide the drive into the cage until it is fully seated (1).
See Figure 10.
