This document describes how to remove a faulty hard-disk drive containing the oper-
ating system from your Dell PowerVault network attached storage (NAS) appliance.
See your system Installation and Troubleshooting document for detailed information
on troubleshooting your system.

NOTE: If the Microsoft
you can use the Dell PowerVault 735N Systems Reinstallation CD to reinstall the oper-
ating system. If you can successfully restore the operating system on the boot hard-
disk drive and the drive passes all the Dell Diagnostics, it is not necessary to replace
the boot hard-disk drive at this time.
Install this customer kit only when your boot hard-disk drive (SCSI ID 0, located in the
top left slot in your system) fails to successfully install the operating system.
K i t C o n t e n t s
This customer kit consists of a hard-disk drive and this document. You will also need a
#2 Phillips screwdriver (to remove the faulty hard-disk drive from its drive carrier and
to install the new replacement hard-disk drive). You should be familiar with the con-
tents of your System Administrator's Guide and your Service Manual.
H a r d - D i s k D r i v e R e m o v a l
Each hard-disk drive installed in the system is mounted in a hard-disk drive carrier.
The front bezel must be removed from the system front panel, and the square metal
locking pin must be lifted out before you remove a drive carrier.
