• ESD wrist strap

To locate and identify the appliance that has the faulty disk drive

• Go to the unit with the failed component.

To locate and then remove the faulty storage disk drive

1 Put on a grounded ESD-compliant wrist strap or take other ESD-preventive measures.
Note: The static discharged by human bodies can damage static-sensitive components on the
boards. When installing and maintaining the equipment, you must observe appropriate electrostatic
safety precautions to prevent personnel injuries or device damage.
2 If applicable, remove the front bezel. Grip the bezel on its sides and pull it from the appliance.
3 In the front panel, locate the drive to be replaced. The drive must be in slots 4-11 and the drive
status LED must be a solid amber color before you disconnect the drive. The drive status LED
is the top LED of the two LEDs that are located on the disk drive face plate.
If the LED is blinking amber, the disk drive is in the process of rebuilding and must not be disturbed.
If the drive status LED is off, the drive is working properly.
4 Press the green button on the left side of the drive carrier to release the disk drive lever.
5 Pull the lever open completely but do not slide the drive out of the slot. Let the drive motor stop
spinning. This takes about 30 seconds.
6 Slide the disk drive and its carrier out of the slot.
