Removing and Replacing Disk Drives Hot-plug disk drives are located at the front of the server. The following sections remove and reinstall a disk drive. CAUTION: A hot-plug device may require interaction with the operating system before the device can be safely removed from or installed into the server. Determine if the operating system supports replacement of disk drives while the operating system is running. If the operating system does not support this feature, shut down the operating system before performing these procedures. Failure to observe this caution could result in system failure.
