Remove an NVMe Storage Drive From the Server

Perform this procedure to physically remove an NVMe storage drive from the server.

1. Identify the physical location of the NVMe drive that you want to remove.

   For storage drive locations, see Storage Drive Locations and Numbering.

2. Verify that the OK to Remove indicator (LED) on the NVMe storage drive is lit.
3. On the drive you plan to remove, push the latch release button to open the drive latch.
4. Grasp the latch and pull the drive out of the drive slot.

   See Remove a HDD or SSD Storage Drive.

5. Consider your next steps:

   • If you are replacing the drive, continue to Install an NVMe Storage Drive in the Server.

   • If you are not replacing the drive, install a filler panel in the empty drive slot to maintain proper airflow and perform administrative tasks to configure the server to operate without the drive.
