To add a 2.5-inch hard disk drive (HDD) or 2.5-inch solid-state drive (SSD):
1. Determine whether you need to shut down your system:
If you are adding disks to a diskless system, gracefully shut down the system.
For information about how to gracefully shut down your system, see the Preferred
Shutdown section of the chapter that describes your system.
If your system is operating with one or more disks, you can add disks while the
system is running. You do not need to shut down the system.
2. Press the disk tray release latch.
The tray handle pops out.
3. Pull out the disk tray.
4. Remove the plastic air blocker from the disk tray.
5. Place the new 2.5-inch HDD or SSD in the disk tray.
