Caution
Make sure you can replace the FRU or CRU within 10 minutes of removing the FRU or CRU. Do not remove a FRU or CRU if you cannot replace it within 10 minutes with a FRU or CRU or with a filler panel. If a FRU or CRU slot is left empty, the system can overheat due to improper airflow.
Important! Make sure that you remove the correct drive. Removing a drive other than the failed drive can disrupt data access and possibly corrupt data.

The system generates an alert to notify you of a failed drive. The system also notifies you when it detects that a drive might fail soon.
