connectors on the back of the drive do not touch your hands or the packing material.

Results
The appliance automatically recognizes the new drive and rebuilds the array. The hard disk drive activity
lights flicker rapidly until the array is rebuilt.
The amount of time the appliance takes to rebuild the array depends on the size of the drive and on the
number of other programs that are also running on the appliance.
