Removing A 2.5-Inch Disk Drive Backplane - Lenovo ThinkServer TD200x Hardware Maintenance Manual

Attention: Static electricity that is released to internal server components when the server is powered
on might cause the server to halt, which might result in the loss of data. To avoid this potential problem,
always use an electrostatic-discharge wrist strap or other grounding system when you work inside
the server with the power on.
2. Touch the static-protective package that contains the disk drive to any unpainted metal surface on the
server; then, remove the disk drive from the package.
3. Remove the filler panel from the hot-swap drive bay, if one is installed.
4. Make sure that the tray handle is open; then, install the hard disk drive into the hot-swap bay.
5. Rotate the drive handle down until the drive is seated in the hot-swap bay and the release latch clicks
into place.
Notes:
a. After installing the hard disk drive, check the disk drive status LEDs to verify that the hard disk drive is
operating correctly. If the amber hard disk drive status LED is lit continuously, that drive is faulty and
must be replaced. If the green hard disk drive activity LED is flashing, the drive is being accessed.
b. If the server is configured for RAID operation using an optional ServeRAID adapter, you might have
to reconfigure your disk arrays after you install hard disk drives. See the documentation that was
included with the optional adapter for additional information about RAID operation.
6. Close the bezel (see Closing the bezel).
