1. Remove the screws securing the dummy drive to the carrier.
2. Remove the dummy drive from the carrier.
3. Install a new drive into the carrier with the printed circuit board side facing down
so that the mounting holes align with those in the carrier.
4. Secure the hard drive by tightening all six screws.
5. Replace the drive carrier into the chassis bay, making sure that the drive carrier
handle is completely closed.
Caution: Except for short periods of time (swapping hard drives), do not operate
the server with the hard drives removed from the bays.
