Removing a 3.5-inch dummy module
Figure 45: Removing a 3.5-inch dummy module
I
Dummy modules have been installed into unused HDD bays. Before
installing an additional HDD, the dummy module needs to be removed
from the desired drive bay.
Ê Carefully remove the lock (1).
I
Remove only locks when you upgrade the server. In bays with locks
are no backplanes installed. So you can not connect an HDD/SSD to
the server without installing a backplane.
Ê Press on the locking tabs on both sides of the dummy module to disengage
the locking mechanism (2).
Ê While keeping the locking tabs pressed, pull the dummy module out of its
bay (3).
V
CAUTION!
Save the dummy module for future use.
Always replace dummy modules into unused HDD bays to comply
with applicable EMC regulations and satisfy cooling requirements.
