Installing an Air Management Sled

The front of an air management sled looks similar to a disk drive module, but the air
management sled is an empty box used to maintain optimum airflow in a chassis.
If you have removed a disk drive and do not intend to replace it, insert an air
management sled to maintain the optimum airflow inside the chassis. You can install
the air management sled by using the same procedure as
Drive" on page B-11, except that no software operations are necessary.
