Installing Non-Hot Swap Storage Devices

Use this section to install any of the non-hot swap mass storage devices used as a hard drive or a tape backup
storage.
CAUTION
Protect the drive from static electricity by leaving it in its antistatic bag until you are
ready to install it. Before handling the drive, touch any unpainted metal surface to
discharge static electricity. When you remove the drive from the antistatic bag, handle it
only by the frame.
Do not touch the electrical components. Place the drive on the antistatic bag whenever
you set it down.

4. If working on a rack-mounted Server, follow the appropriate instructions to safely extend the Server from
the rack. Then remove the covers and front bezel.
