Removing a Hard Disk Drive

Use this procedure to remove a hard disk drive from your system.
1. Observe the safety and ESD precautions listed at the beginning of this
chapter.
2. If tower-based system, open the front door of the cabinet. See Opening the
Front Door of the Tower Cabinet in chapter 2.
3. Power off the system. Ensure the power cords are unplugged from the AC
wall outlet.
4. At the SCSI hard disk drive bay where you want to remove a drive, loosen
the thumbscrew on the front of the bay door and swing it open.
5. Determine which hard disk drive bay slot contains the hard drive you want
to remove, see Figure 4-35.
Each SCSI hard disk drive bay consists of five. Confirm which slot of the
hard disk drive bay the hard drive will be removed from. The SCSI ID
(0 - 4) is determined by the slot number from top to bottom in each bay.
