Figure 5- 11: Forearm Handle Locking Mechanism
♦ Front flap mechanism: Do not leave a drive tray’s front flap open. The front flap
and its key-lock secure a drive tray to chassis slot. A disk drive operating with the
half-open front bezel may result in signal glitches and Data Compare Errors might
ensue.
♦ Remove drives slowly: When removing a drive tray, withdraw it from the enclosure
slowly. If the drive tray is removed too quickly a drive I/O timeout will occur.
♦ Replacement on-hand: Before removing a failed hard drive from the subsystem,
make sure you have a replacement hard drive readily available. Do not leave the
drive tray slot open for an extended period of time. If the drive tray slot is left
unoccupied for an extended period of time, the normalized airflow will be disrupted
and subsystem components will overheat and may become permanently damaged.
5.7.2 Replacing a Failed Hard Drive
To replace a hard drive, please follow these steps:
WARNING!
The hard drive is fragile; please always handle with extreme care. Do not drop the
hard drive; always be slow, gentle and careful when handling a hard drive. Only
handle the hard drive by the edges, avoid touching any components or connector pins.
Step 1. Identify the drive tray that contains the hard drive that needs to be
replaced.
