Removal and Replacement Procedures
Guidelines for Installing Hard Drives
When installing hard drives in the server, observe the following important guidelines:
•
Install only hard drive models specified for your ProLiant server. Installing unsupported
hard drives may damage the system by consuming power and generating heat in excess of
the server's operating tolerance. This condition may result in a loss of system and/or data
integrity.
•
Install hard disks in the drive carriers included with the server chassis using four of the
six HDD mounting screws pre-installed in each of the two HDD carriers.
