the drive (not on the mounting rails) until the assembly latches securely into
place and you hear a click.

11. Replace the system cover.

(a) Carefully place the system cover on the unit so that the tabs on the cover align with the slots

on the unit.

(b) Slide the cover toward the front of the unit until it is fully closed.

(c) Tighten the captive screws on the rear of the unit.

12. Reconnect the cables and power on the unit.

to 34 hours depending on RAID mode and drive capacity and activity. See the

graphic in “Volumes and RAID Management” on page 133.

Note: For RAID modes other than RAID 1, RAID 5, and RAID 10, data cannot be accessed until the
rebuild is complete.

steady green.

15. Connect the interface cable and set up the new drive for RAID configuration (for

related instructions, refer to “Manage RAID” on page 136).
