1. Read the safety information in "Preparing to remove and replace parts" on
page 295.
2. Locate the slot that contains the drive assembly that you want to replace.
a. Refer to "Procedure: Identifying which Storwize V7000 Gen2 enclosure or
canister to service" on page 252 to ensure correct identification of the
correct system or enclosure.
b. The drive slots on the front are numbered 1 - 24, starting from the far left
slot of the enclosure.
c. If the drive in the slot is faulty, the lit, amber fault LED on the drive helps
to identify it.
3. To further help identify the drive assembly, go to the management GUI to
Pools > Internal Storage, select the drive to replace, and click Actions >
Identify. Verify that the correct drive fault LED begins to flash.
Attention: Never hot-swap a hard disk drive when its green activity LED is
flashing. Hot-swap a drive only when its amber fault LED is lit (not flashing)
or when the drive activity LED is off.
To remove a drive assembly, complete the following steps.
4. Gently slide the orange release latch up to unlock the handle.
5. Pull out the tray handle to the open position (see Figure 98 on page 326).
6. Grasp its handle and pull the drive partially out of the bay.
7. Wait at least 20 seconds before you remove the drive assembly from the
enclosure to enable the drive to spin down. This avoids possible damage to
the drive.
8. Gently slide it completely out of the enclosure.
9. Make sure that there is proper identification (such as a label) on the drive
assembly. If the drive failed, record that information on the label.
To install a drive assembly, complete the following steps.
10. Touch the static-protective package that contains the drive assembly to any
unpainted surface on the outside of the enclosure.
11. Remove the drive assembly from its package.
12. Make sure that its drive-tray handle is in the open (unlocked) position.
13. Align the drive assembly with the guide rails in the bay (see Figure 99 on
page 326).
14. Gently push the drive assembly into the bay until the drive stops.
15. Rotate the drive handle to the closed (locked) position.
