Replacing a storage blade disk drive

The system disk on a HP P4460sb G2 storage blade comprises a logical RAID 0 disk that is mirrored
over two physical SFF disk drives in the storage blade. As long as one drive continues to operate,
the storage blade can operate.
You do not need to power down the storage blade; instead, you can hot-swap disk drives. However,
you must replace the removed drive with a drive of the same size or larger.
To replace a disk drive in the storage blade:
1. Check the state of the internal logical disk drive.
For more information, see the HP ProLiant BL460c Server Blade User Guide.
2. If the state is failed, follow the procedure in
(page 23).
3. Remove the failed drive.
If you remove the wrong drive, the mirror set will break, and the storage blade may crash.
Reinsert the good drive and reboot the storage blade.
For instructions on removing the drive, see the HP ProLiant BL460c G6 Server Blade
Maintenance and Service Guide.
4. Insert the replacement drive.

Replacing both storage blade disk drives

As long as one disk drive in the storage blade continues to operate, the storage blade can operate.
However if both disk drives fail, the system disk is lost and you must restore the storage blade.
To reinstall a storage blade:
1. Remove both disk drives.
2. Insert two replacement drives.
3. Reinstall the storage blade by following the quick restore instructions, see
system recovery of the HP P4800 G2 solution" (page
