Removal and replacement procedures 28
IMPORTANT: When hot-plug SATA hard drives are installed, SATA LED functionality and full SATA hot-
plug capability are not supported with the embedded controller. For full LED and hot-plug support, an
optional SATA RAID or SAS controller must be installed.
2. Unlock and open the bezel ("Remove the bezel" on page 25).
3. Remove the hard drive.
To replace the component:
1. Slide the drive into the cage until it clicks, locking the drive into place.
2. Close the lever.
IMPORTANT: When the drive is inserted, the drive LEDs flash for 2 seconds to indicate that the drive is
seated properly and receiving power.
3. As the drive begins to spin, be sure that the drive LEDs illuminate one at a time and then turn off
together to indicate that the system has recognized the new drive.
In fault-tolerant configurations, allow the replacement drive to be reconstructed automatically with
data from the other drives. While reconstruction is in progress, the online LED flashes.
NOTE: The SATA RAID feature supports up to two RAID volumes with up to two hard drives per RAID
volume.
Non-hot-plug hard drive cage
This procedure applies to servers equipped with non-hot-plug drives only. If the server is equipped with
hot-plug hard drives, refer to the hot-plug hard drive removal procedures ("Hot-plug SAS and SATA hard
drives" on page 27, "Hot-plug SCSI hard drive" on page 27).
To remove the component:
1. Power down the server (on page 25).
2. Remove the bezel (on page 25).
3. Remove the access panel ("Access panel" on page 26).
4. Disconnect the power and data cables.
