How to Remove a Hard Drive

Use this procedure to remove a hard drive (HD).

Note - The hard drives in the Sun Fire X4800 server are hot-swap components.

Caution

Caution - If you are removing more than one HD and not replacing the drives, label each HD to indicate its slot (see Hard Drive Designation). Drives must be installed in their original slot.

  1. Prepare the server for service. See How to Prepare for Service.
  2. To unlock the handle on the front of the hard drive assembly, push the handle release button.

    This action causes the handle to unlock and spring open.

  3. To remove the hard drive, pull the drive out of the server using the handle.

    Note - Do not remove the HD from the XL bracket assembly.

    Caution

    Caution - Airflow and temperature control–related issues. Do not leave a hard drive slot unoccupied. Hard drive slots must contain either a drive or a HD filler.

  4. If you are replacing the hard drive, see How to Install a Hard Drive.

    For information about how to install a HD filler, see How to Install a Hard Drive Filler.

  5. Prepare the server for operation. See How to Prepare for Operation.
