Removing and installing a hard disk
drive
The computer may include an optional easy-swap hard disk drive. One standard
3.5-inch Serial ATA hard drive may be mounted in a carrier that connects to a SATA
interface on the disk cage backplane.
Note: In certain configurations the carrier already contains a hard disk drive.
Easy-swap technology shortens system downtime for changing the hard disk or
performing an upgrade.
Warning: Do not attach or detach the hard drive while the system is on. It
may cause damage to the device or lose data.
Removing the hard disk drive carrier
