Fortinet 3.0 MR7 manual To swap a hard disk Go to System Config RAID

Config System

Hot swapping the FortiAnalyzer-2000/2000A and

FortiAnalyzer-4000/4000A

The following diagram indicates the drive number and their location in the FortiAnalyzer unit when you are looking at the front of the unit. Refer to this diagram before removing the disk drive to ensure you remove the correct one.

You can use any brand of hard disk to replace a failed hard disk; however, you must ensure that the hard disk size is the same size or larger as the remaining working drives. Using a smaller drive will affect the RAID setup. The FortiAnalyzer unit will reconfigure the RAID for the smallest drive, potentially causing data loss.

Table 5: FortiAnalyzer-2000/2000A disk drive configuration

Drive 1 (p1)		Drive 4 (p4)
Drive 2 (p2)		Drive 5 (p5)
Drive 3 (p3)		Drive 6 (p6)
Table 6: FortiAnalyzer-4000 disk drive configuration
Drive 1 (p1)	Drive 4 (p4)		Drive 7 (p7)	Drive 10 (p10)
Drive 2 (p2)	Drive 5 (p5)		Drive 8 (p8)	Drive 11 (p11)
Drive 3 (p3)	Drive 6 (p6)		Drive 9 (p9)	Drive 12 (p12)

The FortiAnalyzer-4000A can have different disk drive configurations because the disk layout depends on the RAID controller model.
