Replacing Hardware Components
In this chapter:
• Installing or Replacing Hard Disk Drives
This appendix describes how to replace hardware components (including hard disk drives, power
supply units, and system fans) on the controller.
Installing or Replacing Hard Disk Drives
You can install up to six hot-swappable SAS or SATA hard disk drives on the controller. The
drives go into carriers that connect to the SAS/SATA backplane board once the carriers with
drives attached are inserted back into the drive bays. The controller ships with six drive carriers.
CAUTION: If you install fewer than six hard disk drives, the unused drive bays must contain the
empty carriers that ship with the server to maintain proper cooling.
Ordering a Replacement Hard Disk
To order a replacement hard disk for the controller, contact your Ruckus Wireless sales
representative and place an order for FRU part number 902-0188-0000 (Hard Drive, 600GB,
10K RPM, 64MB Cache 2.5 SAS 6Gb/s, Internal).
CAUTION: Use only FRU part number 902-0188-0000 as replacement hard disk for the controller.
Using other unsupported hard disks will render the controller hardware warranty void.
Removing the Front Bezel
You must remove the front bezel to add or replace a hard drive in one of the drive bays. It is not
necessary to remove the front chassis cover or to power down the system. The hard drives are
hot-swappable.
Follow these steps to remove the front bezel of the controller.
You need to remove the front bezel for tasks such as:
• Installing or removing hard disk drives or an SD flash card
• Observing the individual hard disk drive activity/fault indicators
• Replacing the control panel LED/switch board
