turn off the system and disconnect all power plugs.
•If you attempt to replace a faulty hard drive using inappropriate procedures may
result in data corruption.
•Before replacing any hard drives, back up all data.
•Replacing a hard drive that has not failed may corrupt data on the drive. Remove
only the failed drive.

vibrations or impact.
