3. Unlock the side cover (the bezel will not disengage from the server if the cover
is locked).
4. Remove the lower bezel (see “Removing the two-piece bezel” on page 11).
5. Touch the static-protective package that contains the drive to any unpainted
metal surface on the server; then, remove the drive from the package and place
it on a static-protective surface.
6. Align the drive assembly with the guide rails in the bay (the connector end of
the drive goes in first).
7. Pull the loops of the drive assembly toward each other; then, carefully slide the
drive assembly into the drive bay until it stops, and release the loops.
Note: Do not release the loops on the drive assembly until it is completely
seated.
If
you have other devices to install or remove, do so now; otherwise, go to
“Completing the installation” on page 30.
The simple-swap-drive backplate controls the IDs of the internal simple-swap drive
bays. The following table lists the IDs of the hard disk drives and backplate in
simple-swap models. This table applies only to server models that support four
hard disk drives.
