To replace a hot-plug SCSI hard drive:

1.Slide the drive into the bay until it locks into place.

2.Close the lever.

CAUTION: Data loss can occur if the drive is not firmly seated.

3.Be sure that the drive LEDs illuminate one at a time and then turn off together to indicate that the system has recognized the new drive.

In fault-tolerant configurations, allow the replacement drive to be reconstructed automatically with data from the other drives. While reconstruction is in progress, the online LED flashes.
