CAUTION: Note the number of each drive and temporarily label them before you remove the drive so that you can reinstall them in the same location. NOTE: The procedure to remove the backplane is similar for all backplane configurations. 1. Follow the safety guidelines listed in Safety Instructions. 2. Follow the procedure listed in Before working inside your system. 3. Disconnect the drive backplane cables from the connectors on the system board. 4. Remove all the drives. Steps 1.
