Replacing a 2.5-inch Drive

Installing a Drive

1. Determine the location for installing the drive.

2. Take a spare drive out of its ESD bag.

3. Completely raise the ejector lever and insert the drive into the

slot. See (1) in the figure.

4. Lower the ejector lever until it is latched. See (2) in the figure.

5. Configure the drive based on the actual situation. The

following is only for reference:

If the original drive is not in the RAID array, the new drive

becomes idle. You are advised to set the new drive as a global

or dedicated hot spare disk. The procedure ends.

If the original RAID array (for example, RAID 0) does not

support redundancy, reconfigure RAID. The procedure ends.

If the original RAID array is redundant and has a hot spare disk,

the new drive becomes idle. You are advised to set the new

drive as a global or dedicated hot spare disk. The procedure

ends.

If the original RAID array is redundant but does not have a hot

spare disk, data is automatically rebuilt to the new drive. The

procedure ends.
