Install a hard disk drive
Insert the hard disk drive in its bay and close the latch handle to lock the drive in place. Hard disk drives are
hot-swap devices that can be installed while the server is powered on.
Before you install a hard disk drive, if the hard disk drive bay contains a filler, press the release tab and pull
the filler from the bay.
Hard disk drive fillers can be of two types: single-bay fillers and four-bay fillers. If you remove a four-bay filler
and are not installing four hard disk drives, you must install single-bay fillers in each of the empty drive bays.
