Figure 6-3. Mounting a Drive in a Carrier
Warning! Use caution when working around the backplane. Do not touch the backplane
with any metal objects and make sure no ribbon cables touch the backplane. Also,
regardless of how many drives are installed, all four drive carriers must remain in the
SATA Drive Installation
Mounting a Drive in a Drive Carrier
The SATA drives are mounted in drive carriers to simplify their installation and
system. For this reason, even empty carriers without drives installed must remain
in the chassis.
1. Install a new drive into the carrier with the printed circuit board side facing
down so that the mounting holes align with those in the carrier.
2. Secure the drive to the carrier with six screws, as shown in Figure 6-4.
Installing/Removing SATA Drives
1. To remove a carrier, push the release button located beside the drive LEDs.
2. Swing the colored handle fully out and use it to pull the unit straight out (see
Figure 6-5).
