Removing and installing hot-swap disk drives
Important: Do not leave any drive slots without a drive or air
baffle installed in the carrier. An empty carrier installed in a drive
slot reduces cooling efficiency and can affect performance or
cause damage due to overheating.

2 Pull the handle out to disengage the carrier handle latch from the
locking slot at the top of the drive bay.
