Hot Swap Drive Bays

The hot swap drive bay assemblies come with a backplane board and a fan. Each drive slot
contains a drive carrier with a plastic air baffle.

Removing a Hot Swap Drive Bay

To remove a drive bay:
1. Turn off power to the server and unplug the AC power cords from the power source.
2. Open and remove the front subchassis (page 103 and 104).
3. Remove the fan modules and the foam fan baffle (page 110).
4. Remove the four screws (two on each side) that secure the drive bay assembly to the front
subchassis.
NOTE
Although not necessary, for easier handling, you might want to remove any
drives installed in the drive bay assembly before proceeding.
5. If both hot swap drive bays are installed, loosen two of the screws that secure one side of the
other drive bay to the front subchassis. Loosening the other drive bay allows the drive bay
enclosure to expand slightly, making it easier to remove the drive bay assembly.
6. Grasp the fan housing on the back of the drive bay assembly and pull the drive bay assembly
out the back of the front subchassis.
7. If you are installing a replacement drive bay, skip to "Installing a Hot-Swap Drive Bay," step 5,
on page 116 to install that device.
