NOTICE:

To prevent data loss, you must shut down the system before removing a SCSI drive carrier, unless a SCSI RAID controller is connected to the

SCSI backplane. See "

Hot-Plug SCSI Hard Drives

" for information on hot-plug drive requirements and operation.

NOTICE:

Do not insert a hard-drive carrier and attempt to lock its handle next to a partially installed carrier. Doing so can damage the partially installed

carrier's shield spring and make it unusable. Ensure that the adjacent drive carrier is fully installed.
