Procedure
1. Read all of the available safety information.
2. Remove the cover, as described in âRemoving the top cover: 2076-92F â on page 46.
3. Locate the empty drive slot to receive the new drive or that contains the faulty drive that you want to
replace.
Note: When a drive is faulty, the amber fault indicator is lit ( 3 in Figure 70 on page 64). Do not
replace a drive unless the drive fault indicator is on or you are instructed to do so by a îłx procedure.
A label on the enclosure cover (Figure 71 on page 64) shows the drive locations in the enclosure.
The drive slots are numbered 1-14 from left to right and A-G from the back to the front of the
enclosure.

The drive slots must be populated sequentially, starting from the back-left corner position (slot 1,
grid A1). Sequentially install the drive in the slots from left to right and back row to front. Always
complete a full row before you install drives in the next row. For example, in Figure 72 on page 65,
the drives are installed correctly. Drives are installed in slots 1 -14 of row A and the installation
continues in slot 15 in row B.
