Installing or replacing a hot-swap drive

Attention: Do not open your server or attempt any repair before reading and understanding "Safety information"
on page iii and "Guidelines" on page 67.
This topic provides instructions on how to install or replace a hot-swap drive, including hard disk drives
and solid-state drives.
You can install or replace a hot-swap drive without turning off the server, which helps you avoid significant
interruption to the operation of the system.

The EMI integrity and cooling of the server are protected by having all drive bays covered or occupied. The
number of the installed drives in your server varies depending on the server model. The vacant bays are
either covered by an EMI-protective panel or occupied by dummy trays. When installing a drive, save the
removed dummy tray in case that you later remove the drive and need the dummy tray to cover the place.
Attention: An unoccupied drive bay without any other protection might impact the EMI integrity and cooling
of the server, which might result in overheating or component damage. To maintain the EMI integrity and
cooling of the server, install a new drive as soon as you remove the failing one or the dummy tray.
Before you begin, print all the related instructions or ensure that you can view the PDF version on another
computer for reference.
