If a hard disk drive fails, it is recommended to keep the failed hard disk drive in the storage tray until installing
a new hard disk drive or a filler.
Step 1.
Carefully lay the storage tray on a flat, static-protective surface, orienting the storage tray with the
release latch near your right hand side.
Step 2.
Connect the configuration cable, the hardware RAID (signal) cable, and the mini-SAS cable to
the storage tray.
Step 3.
Install the easy-swap hard disk drive #6 (see "Installing a 3.5-inch hard disk drive" on page 143).
Step 4.
Orient the storage tray so that the posts on the inside of the storage tray slide into the slots on the
compute node.
Note: Before you install the storage tray, make sure that the air baffles and all components are
installed and seated correctly and that you have not left loose tools or parts inside the compute
node.
