supplies.

Extend the server to the maintenance position.
See “Extend the Server to the Maintenance Position” on page 59.
c.
Attach an antistatic wrist strap to your wrist, and then to a metal area on the
chassis.
See “Take Antistatic Measures” on page 61.
d.
Remove the server top cover.
See “Remove the Server Top Cover” on page 62.
e.
Lift up the super capacitor to release the capacitor from the reclosable
fasteners that secure it to the chassis.
Set the super capacitor aside (leaving the super capacitor cable attached) until you are
ready to install the replacement storage drive backplane.
2.
Pull all storage drives out far enough to disengage them from the disk
backplane.
See “Remove a Storage Drive” on page 67.
Note - It is not necessary to completely remove the storage drives from the server; simply
pull them out far enough to disengage them from the disk backplane. If you do remove the
storage drives from the server, record their locations so that you can reinstall them in the same
locations.
