Removing a simple-swap hard disk drive
This procedure applies only to server models that have simple-swap SATA hard disk
drives.
Attention: Simple-swap hard disk drives are not hot-swappable. Disconnect all
power from the server before you remove or install a simple-swap hard disk drive.
To remove a simple-swap hard disk drive, complete the following steps:
1. Read the safety information that begins on page vii and “Installation guidelines”
on page 57.
2. Turn off the server and all attached devices; then, disconnect all power cords
and external cables.
3. Unlock the side cover. The side cover does not have to be removed.
4. Remove the lower bezel (see “Removing the lower bezel” on page 64).
5. Pull the loops of the drive assembly that is to be removed toward each other;
then, pull the assembly out of the bay.
6. If you are instructed to return the drive assembly, follow all packaging
instructions, and use any packaging materials for shipping that are supplied to
you.
