Removing and Replacing the Hard Disk Drive
This section describes how to remove and replace the hard disk drive.
NOTE Prior to removing the Hard Disk Drive, the Front panel needs to be removed.
See the appropriate section(s) for removing and replacing this component.

Removing the Hard Disk Drive

1. On the front of the hard disk to be replaced, push the blue tab to the right to unlatch the
black release lever. Pull the lever outward to disconnect the hard disk from the
hard-disk backplane board at the back of the hard disk drive bay.

2. Carefully slide the hard disk drive out of the chassis guide rails and set it aside.
Support the weight of the hard drive as it slides free of the rails.
CAUTION Dropping the hard disk drive can cause severe damage to the drive hardware.
3. Repeat Steps 1 and 2 for the other hard-disk drives.

Putting a Disk Drive into its Tray

When you receive and unpack a new disk drive, it will not include the tray that is needed
in order to insert it into your workstation. These trays are already in the disk-drive bays.
You will need to assemble the disk drive into its tray before you can slide the disk drive
and tray assembly into the workstation.
1. Unpack the new disk drive. Never let it drop onto the floor or onto a desk—always set it
down gently—and observe ESD (electrostatic discharge) precautions, as described in
the Preface of this document.
