Prerequisites
CAUTION: 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 are shipped with your product.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to the drives and backplane, you must remove the hard drives from the system before
removing the backplane.
CAUTION: You must note the number of each hard drive and temporarily label them before removal so that you can
replace them in the same locations.
NOTE: You must route the cables properly through the tabs on the chassis to prevent them from being pinched or
crimped.
