This procedure applies only to the 5U server model with hot-swap power supplies.
If you are replacing a drive, make sure that:
• The hot-swap drives must be either all SAS hard disk drives or all SATA hard disk drives; the two types
cannot be combined.
• Inspect the drive tray for signs of damage.
• To maintain proper system cooling, do not operate the server for more than 10 minutes without at least
one hard disk drive installed in the drive bay.
• You do not have to turn off the server to install hot-swap drives in the hot-swap drive bays.
