Preparing a disk drive or solid-state drive for use in an AIX system or
logical partition
Configure the newly installed disk drive or solid-state drive for your environment.
If the drive is attached to a PCI-X SCSI RAID controller, see the PCI-X SCSI RAID Controller Reference
Guide for AIX in the IBM(r) AIX Information Center. If the drive is attached to another controller, see the

and AIX Information Center (http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/pseries/v5r3/index.jsp).
Preparing to remove a disk drive or solid-state drive from a system or
an expansion unit controlled by AIX
Learn the actions you must take to properly remove a disk drive or solid-state drive from a system or an
expansion unit controlled by AIX.
Before removing a drive from a system or expansion unit that is controlled by AIX, ensure that all data
on that drive or the array that contains the drive is backed up and removed from the drive. Also ensure
that the drive is in the Defined state.
If the drive is attached to a SAS RAID controller, see SAS RAID controllers for AIX. If the drive is
attached to a PCI-X SCSI RAID controller, see the PCI-X SCSI RAID Controller Reference Guide for AIX or
SAS RAID controllers for AIX topic. If the drive is attached to another controller, see the information for
