4Press the handle so that it is flush with the front panel.

5The disk status light turns green to indicate normal operation.

Important: Be sure to save the blank drive module if you removed one. A blank module should always be placed in an empty drive bay to maintain proper airflow through the server.

Opening and Closing the Server

1Shut down the server.

Be sure to wait a brief period to allow the server’s internal components to cool.

Warning: Always shut down your server before opening it to avoid damaging its internal components or the components you want to install. Do not open the server or attempt to install items inside it while it is turned on. After shutting down your server, the internal components can be very hot. Let the computer cool down before continuing.

2If the cable-management arm is not in use for all cables, unplug all cables from the back panel except the power cord. If a FireWire cable is connected to the front panel, disconnect it too.
