Removing a Hot Swap Drive
To prevent overheating or excessive electromagnetic radiation, use the filler panels
to fill the unused drive bays. If the filler panels are left out of empty drive bays while
the Netserver is operating, thermal damage and/or excessive EMI could occur.
Protect the drive from static electricity by leaving it in its anti-static bag until you are
ready to install it. Before handling the drive, touch any unpainted metal surface to
discharge static electricity. When you remove the drive from the anti-static bag,
handle it only by the frame.
Do not touch the electrical components. Place the drive on the anti-static bag
whenever you set it down.
