Replacing a Failed Drive

It is simple to replace a failed drive in your WD Sentinel server. First, make sure to go to the WD Store to purchase a compatible replacement drive. For a complete list of approved drive models, search for Answer ID 9443 in the WD Knowledge Base at http://support.wdc.com.

The drives in the WD Sentinel server are “hot swappable.” This means that the

WD Sentinel server can remain powered on while you replace the drive. Once you replace the drive, the WD Sentinel server automatically reconfigures the RAID. (See “Find compatible hard drives” on page 23.)

Use the following steps to replace a failed drive in your WD Sentinel server.
