Remove a failed drive to replace it with a new one.
Steps
1. Unpack the replacement drive, and set it on a flat, static-free surface near the shelf.
Save all packing materials for the next time you need to send a drive back.
2. Release the drive drawer levers from the center of the appropriate drive drawer by pulling both
towards the sides of the drawer.
3. Carefully pull on the extended drive drawer levers to pull out the drive drawer to its full
extension without removing it from the enclosure.
4. Gently pull back the orange release latch that is in front of the drive you want to remove.
The cam handle on the drive springs open partially, and the drive is released from the drawer.
