Removal and replacement procedures 30
3.
Remove the hard drive.
To replace the component:
1. Slide the drive into the cage until it clicks, locking the drive into place.
2. Close the lever.
IMPORTANT: When the drive is inserted, the drive LEDs flash for 2 seconds to indicate that the drive is
seated properly and receiving power.
3. As the drive begins to spin, be sure that the drive LEDs illuminate one at a time and then turn off
together to indicate that the system has recognized the new drive.
In fault-tolerant configurations, allow the replacement drive to be reconstructed automatically with
data from the other drives. While reconstruction is in progress, the online LED flashes.
NOTE: The SATA RAID feature supports up to two RAID volumes with up to four hard drives per RAID
volume.
