Removing a Hot-Swap Hard Disk Drive Module
CAUTION
You must remove the drive slowly to ensure the drive heads
are parked prior to removal. Ensure you follow these
instructions carefully to prevent handling damage, such as
head slaps or head actuator unlocking.
1. To unlock the drive, push the locking latch in and then pull the ejector
handle toward you (see Figure 4-7).
2. Gently pull the drive out about an inch to disengage the power connection.
3. Wait about 30 seconds for the drive to stop spinning and the drive heads to
park.
4. Use your hand to support the bottom of the drive, while you slowly pull the
drive straight out. Do not allow the drive to fall.
5. Place the drive in an electrostatic protected container. Do not stack drives.
