Installing a Hard Disk Drive

Hard disk drives are packaged in their drive carriers for immediate installation. They require no assembly
and may be installed without the use of any tools. To install the hard disk drive, complete the following
procedure:
1. Remove the plastic bezel on the front of the server.
2. Orient the new drive's carrier and drive assembly in front of the bay guide rails so that the latch
is toward the top. Make sure that the carrier is placed correctly into the guide rails to avoid
damage.
CAUTION
While grasping only the drive carrier handle, firmly push the assembly into the bay until the drive
docks with the backplane connector and the carrier latch locks.
Figure 22. Removing a Hard Disk Drive
Do not press on the perforated metal bracket of the carrier when you push the
assembly into the bay, or you may damage the metal fingers of the bracket.
