hard drives, you must unlock them before removing or replacing a drive:
a. Remove the top metal cover. See “Removing the Top Metal Cover” (page 43).
CAUTION: If you try to remove a hard drive without unlocking it from the server,
you will damage the hard drive bay.
b. Press down on the unlock lever to unlock the drive. See Figure 4-15.
NOTE: If the drive bay is not locked, the procedure for installing additional hard
drives can be accomplished without removing the server from the rack and it is not
necessary to remove the top cover. Completion of the procedure does not require locking
the disk bay, replacing the top metal cover, or replacing the server in the rack.
