Removing and replacing drives

Removing and replacing drives
Depending on the configuration, this system supports SAS, SATA, or NVMe drives. When removing and replacing drives, observe the
following general guidelines.
The system automatically sets all device numbers.
If only one drive is used, install the drive in the drive bay with the lowest device number (see Drive numbering).
Drives must be the same capacity to provide the greatest storage space efficiency when drives are grouped together into the same
drive array.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the drives and the internal system components WARNING:
to cool before touching them.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, adequately stabilize the rack before WARNING:
extending a component outside the rack. Extend only one component at a time. A rack may become unstable if more
than one component is extended.
CAUTION: Do not operate the system for long periods with the front drive cages extended. When the front drive cages CAUTION:
are extended while the system is powered on, monitor the status of the front drive temp sensor (08-HD Max) in iLO. If
the iLO temp sensor (08-HD Max) reading is reporting an N/A value, monitor how long the drive cages have been out of
the chassis. Before reaching the 110 second mark, slide the drive cages back into the chassis and keep them there for at
least 300 seconds before extending them again.
Failure to observe this caution will result in improper airflow and insufficient cooling that can lead to thermal damage.
CAUTION: CAUTION:
Do not operate the server with any of the front or rear drive cage bays empty. To maintain proper airflow and sufficient
cooling, all drive bays in the front and rear cage must have a drive or a drive blank.
CAUTION: CAUTION:
Do not operate the server with any of the rear drive bays empty. To maintain proper airflow and sufficient cooling in
the rear drive cage, all drive bays in this cage must have a drive or a drive blank. Hewlett Packard Enterprise
recommends installing at least one drive in the rear drive cage before operating the server.
