Notice: When the SCSI drive fault LED indicates a drive fault (steady yellow light), you can remove the drive and swap in a replacement at any time when the drive is not being accessed, without needing to power down the system. However, drive manufacturers caution against moving a drive that is still spinning because of possible damage to the drive.

If you are swapping out a faulty SCSI drive, you can pinpoint which drive to remove by checking the status LEDs that occur in sets of three above each of the six drive bays. Refer to “Status LED Indicator Descriptions” in Chapter 2.

After you determine which drive has been flagged as faulty, the procedure is the same to swap a drive or to install one for the first time.
