9.1.1 Removing a Hard Disk Drive
1. Shut down and power off the system.
See Section 6.1, "Powering Off the System."
2. Remove the cover and attach a wrist strap.
See Chapter 7, "Internal Access."
3. Determine which drive you need to remove.
If you need to remove the bottom disk drive, follow the steps to remove the
top disk drive first.
Note – The position of a disk drive determines its SCSI target address. The
bottom drive automatically becomes SCSI address 3 at power up. The top drive
becomes SCSI address 1 at power up. SCSI termination for internal drives is
provided automatically by the SCSI backplane.
Caution – Once a hard drive has been installed in the SPARCstation 5 system,
!
do not change the position of that drive.
4. A latch is located at the rear of the drive. Press the plastic latch to release
the drive handle.
5. Lift the drive handle to its vertical position.
When lifted, the drive bracket acts as a lever to disconnect the drive from
the chassis connector on the SCSI backplane.
6. Grasp the drive bracket handle and lift the drive straight up and out
of the chassis.
See Figure 9-2. Place the drive on an antistatic surface.
