3If you are replacing a hot-plug hard drive, remove the drive that you are replacing. See "Removing a Hot-plug Hard Drive" on page 88.

If a replacement hard drive does not have the lever-release hard drive bracket attached, remove the bracket from the old drive and install it on the new drive. See Figure 3-14.

The SAS/SATA hard-drive bracket has mounting holes to enable either a "SAS" or "SATA" mounting position, depending on your hard drive type. See Figure 3-14.
