Removing a Hard Drive From a Hard-Drive Carrier

CAUTION:

Use only hard drives that have been tested and approved for use with

the SAS/SATA backplane.

CAUTION:

When installing a hard drive, ensure that the adjacent drives are fully

installed. Inserting a hard-drive carrier and attempting to lock its handle next to a
partially installed carrier can damage the partially installed carrier's shield spring
and make it unusable.

Remove the screws from the slide rails on the hard-drive carrier and separate

the hard drive from the carrier. See Figure 2-6.
