Hot-Pluggable Hard Disk Drives
The Disk Drives
positions in the slots, not switches on the drives themselves, define the
SCSI address for each drive. These addresses are labelled on the chassis.
Finally, these hard drives are hot-pluggable: that is, you do not need to
power down the entire machine to remove or insert a hard disk drive.
CAUTION However, from a software point of view, there are two restrictions on the
interchangeability of these drives:
• The boot device—that disk drive that contains the operating
system—must be in drive bay 6, the uppermost bay.
• The boot device must not be removed while the system is running.
For details, see the section "The Hot-Plug Process" later in this chapter.
