Installing a hot-swap hard disk drive The following illustration shows how to install a hot-swap hard disk drive. Filler panel Drive-tray assembly Drive handle (in open position) Attention: Static electricity that is released to internal server components when the server is powered-on might cause the server to halt, which might result in the loss of data. To avoid this potential problem, always use an electrostatic-discharge wrist strap or other grounding system when you work inside the server with the power on. To install a hot-swap hard disk drive, complete the following steps: 1. Read the safety information that begins on page v and "Installation guidelines" on page 9. 2. Remove the filler panel from one of the empty hot-swap bays. 3. Make sure that the tray handle is open; then, install the hard disk drive into the hot-swap bay. Note: When you turn on the server, check the hard disk drive status LEDs to make sure that the hard disk drive is operating correctly. If the amber hard disk drive status LED for a drive is lit continuously, that drive is faulty and must be replaced. If the green hard disk drive activity LED is flashing, the drive is being accessed. If you have other devices to install or remove, do so now. Otherwise, go to "Completing the installation" on page 26. 12 IBM System x3850 M2 and System x3950 M2 Type 7141: Installation Guide

The
following
illustration
shows
how
to
install
a
hot-swap
hard
disk
drive.
Filler panel
Drive-tray assembly
Drive handle
(in open position)
Attention:
Static
electricity
that
is
released
to
internal
server
components
when
the
server
is
powered-on
might
cause
the
server
to
halt,
which
might
result
in
the
loss
of
data.
To
avoid
this
potential
problem,
always
use
an
electrostatic-discharge
wrist
strap
or
other
grounding
system
when
you
work
inside
the
server
with
the
power
on.
To
install
a
hot-swap
hard
disk
drive,
complete
the
following
steps:
1.
Read
the
safety
information
that
begins
on
page
v
and
“Installation

2.
Remove
the
filler
panel
from
one
of
the
empty
hot-swap

3.
Make
sure
that
the
tray

is
open;
then,
install
the
hard
disk
drive
into
the
hot-swap
bay.
Note:
When
you
turn
on
the
server,
check
the
hard
disk
drive
status
LEDs
to
make
sure
that
the
hard
disk
drive
is
operating
correctly.
If
the
amber
hard
disk
drive
status
LED
for
a
drive
is
lit
continuously,
that
drive
is
faulty
and
must
be
replaced.
If
the
green
hard
disk
drive
activity
LED
is
flashing,
the
drive
is
being
accessed.
If
you

do
so
now.
Otherwise,
