Removing the HDD module

VCAUTION!

●Only remove a HDD module during operation if the drive is not currently being accessed. Observe the control LEDs for the corre- sponding HDD modules (see “Indicators on the HDD module” on page 47).

●Under no circumstances should you remove an HDD module while the system is in operation if you are not sure whether the hard disk drive is operated by a RAID controller and belongs to a disk array which is operating at RAID level 1.

An HDD module can only be replaced during operation in conjunction with a corresponding RAID configuration.

●All HDD modules (drives) must be uniquely identified so that they can be reinstalled in their original mounting locations later. If this is not done, existing data can be lost.

If you want to remove an HDD module during operation, proceed as follows:

ÊIf you want to remove a HDD module that is not defective, the drive must be first set to offline via the software (RAID controller configuration software).

ÊUnlock the HDD module as described in section “Unlocking the HDD module” on page 64.

ÊPull the HDD module out a few centimeters.

ÊWait for at least 60 seconds.

IThis period is necessary for the RAID controller to recognize that an HDD module has been removed and for the hard disk drive to come to a stop.

ÊPull the HDD module out completely.
