Replacing media bay modules

When media bay modules require replacement, follow the steps in this section.

Warning: This section describes replacing a module with the same type of module. If you want to replace a module with a different type of module, you must treat it as a new installation. Refer to Chapter 7, “Setting media bay module DIP switches,” on page 83 and review Figure 40 on page 90 to ensure the new module does not overrun any lines already assigned to other modules.
