Dell PowerEdge C8000 Hardware Owner's Manual page 151

The removal procedures for the 2.5-inch hard-drive and the 3.5-inch hard-
drive in the sled cover are similar. Following is an example showing the
replacement procedure of a 2.5-inch hard-drive.
1 Remove the sled from the enclosure. See "Removing a Sled" on page 141.
2 Press down on the release latches to release the drive-bay cover and rotate
the cover up, and then slide it out of the sled. See Figure 3-15.
CAUTION:
The sled must be operated with the drive-bay cover installed to ensure
proper cooling.
CAUTION:
Never install your sled into the PowerEdge C8000 server enclosure
with the drive-bay cover removed. The metal strips inside the server enclosure
may get caught in the sled cover.
