Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician. You
should only perform troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in your
product documentation, or as directed by the online or telephone service and
support team. Damage due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is not covered
by your warranty. Read and follow the safety instructions that came with the
product.
NOTICE:
Combining SATA and SAS hard drives in the same system configuration is
not supported.
1 Unpack the hard drive and prepare it for installation.
2 Turn off the system and attached peripherals, and disconnect the system
from the electrical outlet and from the peripherals.
3 Remove the system cover (see "Removing the System Cover" on page 66).
4 Remove the existing hard drive, if applicable (see "Removing a Cabled
Hard Drive" on page 80).
If there is a hard drive bracket in the empty hard drive bay, press in on the
blue tabs on each side of the bracket and slide the bracket up and out of
the system. (see Figure 3-13).
5 Snap the hard drive bracket onto the hard drive (see Figure 3-14).
If the hard drive you are installing does not have a hard drive bracket,
remove the bracket from the old drive. To remove the hard drive, spread
the sides of the hard-drive bracket outward and lift the drive from the
bracket (see Figure 3-14).
