Installing a Hot-Plug Hard Drive

NOTICE:
When installing a hard drive, ensure that the adjacent drives are fully
installed. Inserting a hard-drive carrier and attempting to lock its handle next to a
partially installed carrier can damage the partially installed carrier's shield spring
and make it unusable.
NOTICE:
Not all operating systems support hot-plug drive installation. See the
documentation supplied with your operating system.
1 Remove the bezel. See "Removing and Replacing the Optional Front
Bezel" on page 66.
