Preinstallation Steps (All Bays)
Note: All internal drives in this system are mounted horizontally.
Attention: Caution should be used when handling all hard drives. Drives are most
likely to be damaged during installation and service. Bumping or handling drives
roughly causes latent failures. Do not stack drives and always use appropriate ESD
practices. A drop of as little as 1/4 inch can cause latent failures. Media can take
30 seconds to spin down, so ensure at least a 30 second delay after switching off
the hot-swappable drives for removal.
1. Touch the static-protective bag containing the drive to any unpainted metal
surface on the system; then remove the drive from the bag.
