Removing a 2.5-inch HDD/SSD module

Ê Pinch the green locking clips and open the locking lever (see figure 99).

Ê Pull the HDD/SSD module out a few centimeters.

Ê Wait about 30 seconds to allow the HDD to spin down.

This is not necessary when removing an SSD.

This period is necessary for the RAID controller to recognize that an

HDD module has been removed and for the HDD to come to a stop.

Ê Pull the HDD/SSD module completely out of its bay.

If the removed HDD/SSD module is not replaced immediately, always

replace a dummy module into the unused HDD/SSD bay to comply with

applicable EMC regulations and satisfy cooling requirements.
