Lenovo x3650 M4 BD 5466 Installation And Service Manual page 169

• The server supports up to fourteen 3.5-inch hot-swap SAS/SATA hard disk drives (two 3.5-inch hot-swap
SAS/SATA hard disk drives are located at the rear of the server). For a list of the supported hard disk
drives, see http://www.lenovo.com/us/en/ serverproven/.
• All hot-swap drives in the server should have the same throughput speed rating. Using hard disk drives
with different speed ratings will cause all drives to operate at the throughput speed of the slowest drive.
To install a hot-swap SAS or SATA drive, complete the following steps:
Important: Do not install a SCSI hard disk drive in this server.
Step 1. Read the safety information that begins on page "Safety" on page v, "Handling static-sensitive
devices" on page 32 and "Installation guidelines" on page 30.
Step 2. Touch the static-protective package that contains the drive to any unpainted metal surface on the
server; then, remove the drive from the package and place it on a static-protective surface.
Step 3. Remove the filler panel from the front of the server.
Step 4. Orient the drive as shown in the illustration.
Figure 80.
Step 5. Make sure that the tray handle is open.
Step 6. Align the drive assembly with the guide rails in the bay.
Step 7. Gently push the drive assembly into the bay until the drive stops.
Step 8. Push the tray handle to the closed (locked) position.
Step 9. If the system is turned on, check the hard disk drive status LED to verify that the hard disk drive
is operating correctly.
After you replace a failed hard disk drive, the green activity LED flashes as the disk spins up. The yellow LED
turns off after approximately 1 minute. If the new drive starts to rebuild, the yellow LED flashes slowly, and
the green activity LED remains lit during the rebuild process. If the yellow LED remains lit, see "Hard disk
drive problems" on page 122.
Note: You might have to reconfigure the disk arrays after you install hard disk drives. See the RAID
documentation on the ServeRAID Support CD for information about RAID controllers.
