chassis.
1. Gently remove the bezel from the front of the system.
2. Remove the drives:
a. Press the release button at the top of the carrier face below the LEDs.
b. Pull the cam handle to its fully open position to unseat the drive from the midplane, and then gently
slide the drive out of the chassis.
The drive should disengage from the chassis, allowing it to slide free of the chassis.
When removing a drive, always use two hands to support its weight.
Drives are fragile. Handle them as little as possible to prevent damage to them.
3. Keep track of what drive bay each drive was from and set the drives aside on a static-free cart or table.
Step 3: Replace chassis from within the equipment rack or system cabinet
You must remove the existing chassis from the equipment rack or system cabinet before you can install the
replacement chassis.
1. Remove the screws from the chassis mount points.
2. With two people, slide the old chassis off the rack rails in a system cabinet or equipment rack, and then set
it aside.
3. Using two people, install the replacement chassis into the equipment rack or system cabinet by guiding the
chassis onto the rack rails in a system cabinet or equipment rack.
4. Slide the chassis all the way into the equipment rack or system cabinet.
5. Secure the front of the chassis to the equipment rack or system cabinet, using the screws you removed
from the old chassis.
6. Install the drives from the old chassis into the replacement chassis:
a. Align the drive from the old chassis with the same bay opening in the new chassis.
7. Gently push the drive into the chassis as far as it will go.
The cam handle engages and begins to rotate upward.
a. Firmly push the drive the rest of the way into the chassis, and then lock the cam handle by pushing it
up and against the drive carrier.
Be sure to close the cam handle slowly so that it aligns correctly with the front of the drive carrier. It
clicks when it is secure.
b. Repeat the process for the remaining drives in the system.
8. If you have not already done so, install the bezel.
Step 4: Reinstall the controller modules
Reinstall the controller module and reboot it.
1. Ensure the air duct is completely closed by rotating it down as far as it will go.
