Page 41 highlights

Removing or installing a hard drive blank Before you begin CAUTION: • Before removing a component or blank from an operational device, make sure that you have the replacement part or blank available. Removing a component or blank impacts the airflow pattern and cooling ability of the device. Allow approximately 30 seconds before installing the new or replacement component to ensure that configuration data about the removed component is cleared from the system registry, but, to avoid possible overheating, insert the new or replacement component within one or two minutes. If the internal temperature exceeds acceptable limits, the device may overheat and automatically shut down or restart. • Parts can be damaged by electrostatic discharge. Use proper anti-static protection. Removing a hard drive blank CAUTION: A blank or a hard drive must be installed in each hard drive slot. Failure to install a blank or hard drive in all slots could result in thermal failures. NOTE: Illustrations in this section demonstrate removing a hard drive blank from an MSA20 storage enclosure. The procedure for removing a hard drive blank from an MSA30 or other storage enclosure is similar. 1. Review all warnings, cautions, and preparation procedures as detailed in Warnings and precautions. 2. Push in the tabs to unlock the hard drive blank (1). 3. Continue to press the tabs while pulling the hard drive blank out of the chassis (2). Installing a hard drive blank Slide the blank into the enclosure chassis bay until it clicks into place. newpage pi 1510i Modular Smart Array maintenance and service guide 41
