2. Installing/removing hot-swap SAS/SATA drives

The SAS/SATA drive carriers are all easily accessible at the front of the chassis. These hard drives are hot-pluggable, meaning they can be removed and installed without powering down the system. To remove a carrier, push the release button located beside the drive LEDs. Then swing the colored handle fully out and use it to pull the unit straight out (see Figure 6-4).

Note: Your operating system must have RAID support to enable the hot-plug ca- pability of the SAS/SATA drives.

Important: All of the SAS/SATA drive carriers must remain in the drive bays to maintain proper cooling airflow.
