HSP #133 Replacing a RAID canister in a Primary Storage Shelf or an Expansion canister in an Expansion Storage Shelf
Hardware Part Replacement Procedure
Removing and replacing a RAID canister in a Primary Storage Shelf or an
Expansion canister in an Expansion Storage Shelf
Before you start to replace a RAID canister in a Primary Storage Shelf or an Expansion canister in
an Expansion Storage Shelf, gather the following:
• ESD wrist strap
• A replacement canister
• A RAID canister air blocker (the air blocker shipped with the original Primary Storage Shelf)
Warning: If you perform this procedure with the power turned on, you must complete it within 15
minutes to prevent the possibility of overheating the equipment.
Do not remove both canisters from the storage shelf at the same time. One canister must be
functioning at all times.
Caution: To prevent electrostatic discharge damage, use proper antistatic protection when handling
components.
Canister locations
The RAID and Expansion canisters for both storage shelves are located in the center of the rear panel
of the shelf. These canisters are located between the two power canisters.
In the Primary Storage Shelf, each RAID canister has two levers that disengage the canister from the
chassis of the storage shelf. The lever attached to the left of the canister has an orange tab on its
end. The right-hand lever does not have an orange tab. The right lever folds under the left lever. Both
levers open to approximately 75 degrees. The levers of the replacement canister secure the new
canister in place.
