NOTICE: To prevent damage to the drives and backplane, you must remove the SAS drives and diskette/optical drive carrier from the system before removing the backplane.

NOTICE: You must note the number of each hard drive and temporarily label them before removal so that you can replace them in the same locations.

4Remove all SAS hard drives. See "Removing a Hot-Plug Hard Drive" on page 73.

5To remove the optical/diskette drive carrier, pull the release latch forward, then slide the carrier out of the chassis. See Figure 3-18.

6Remove the cooling shrouds. See "Removing the Cooling Shrouds" on page 49.

NOTICE: When disconnecting the control-panel cable, hold the white pull-tab next to the control-panel cable connector to prevent damage to the SAS backplane or the cable itself.

7Disconnect the control-panel cable from the control-panel cable connector on the front of the SAS backplane. See Figure 6-3.
