Removing a non-hot-swap hard disk drive

Attention:

Do not open your server or attempt any repair before reading and understanding the Safety Information and the
Warranty and Support Information on the ThinkServer Documentation DVD that came with your product, and
“Guidelines” on page 21. To obtain a copy of the publications, go to:

This section provides instructions on how to remove a non-hot-swap hard disk drive. This section applies
only to server models that have non-hot-swap hard disk drives installed.

Attention: To maintain proper system cooling, do not operate the server for more than 10 minutes without
either a drive or a filler panel installed in each drive bay.

To remove a non-hot-swap hard disk drive, do the following:

1. Remove all media from the drives and turn off all attached devices and the server. Then, disconnect all

power cords from electrical outlets and disconnect all cables that are connected to the server.

2. Press the blue button

remove the server cover when you want to remove, install, or replace any hard disk drives. See “Locking
or unlocking the hard disk drive side door” on page 26
and “Removing the server cover” on page 23.
