Installing a drive drawer
Installing a drive drawer into a drive tray entails sliding the drawer into the empty slot, installing the drives, and replacing the
front bezel.
Before you begin
• You know where to install each drive.
• You have obtained the following items:
◦
Replacement drive drawer
◦
Flashlight
Steps
1. From the front of the drive tray, shine a flashlight into the empty drawer slot, and locate the lock-out tumbler for that slot.
The lock-out tumbler assembly is a safety feature that prevents you from being able to open more than one drive drawer at
one time.

2. Position the replacement drive drawer in front of the empty slot and slightly to the right of center.
Positioning the drawer slightly to the right of center helps to ensure that the lock-out tumbler and the drawer guide are
correctly engaged.
3. Slide the drive drawer into the slot, and ensure that the drawer guide slides under the lock-out tumbler.
Risk of equipment damage – Damage occurs if the drawer guide does not slide under the lock-out tumbler.
