2.6 Installing Hard Drives
The expansion chassis supports hot-swapping allowing you to install or replace a
hard drive while the subsystem is running.
Each Drive Carrier has a locking mechanism. When the Lock Groove is horizontal,
this indicates that the Drive Carrier is locked. When the Lock Groove is vertical,
the Drive Carrier is unlocked. Lock and unlock the Drive Carriers by using a flat-
head screw driver. The Lock Grooves are located on the carrier open button.
a. Press the Carrier Open button and the Drive Carrier handle will flip open.
b. Pull out an empty disk tray. Pull the lever handle outwards to remove the
carrier from the enclosure.
c. Place the hard drive in the disk tray. Make sure the holes of the disk tray
align with the holes of the hard drive.
d. Install the mounting screws on the bottom part to secure the drive in the
disk tray.
e. Slide the tray into a slot.
f. Close the lever handle until you hear the latch click into place.
