2.6 Install Hard Drives

This section describes the physical locations of the hard drives supported by the
subsystem and gives instructions on installing a hard drive. The subsystem
supports hot-swapping allowing you to install or replace a hard drive while the
subsystem is running.

1. Pull out an empty disk tray. (You can install in any available slot.)

2. Take off the bracket before installing hard drive.

3. Place the hard drive in the disk tray.

4. Install the mounting screws on each side to secure the drive in the mobile

rack.

Note:
Insert screws through the front sides of the mounting holes.


5. Slide the tray into a slot until it clicks into place. The HDD status LED will turn

green on front panel.

6. Press the lever in until you hear the latch click into place.

7. If the HDD power LED did not turn green, check the hard drive is in good

condition. If the hard drive is not being accessed, the HDD access LED will
not illuminate. The LED blinks only when being accessed.
