Remove an NVMe Storage Drive

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

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

   For storage drive locations, see Remove an HDD or SSD Storage Drive.

2. Verify that the OK to Remove indicator (LED) on the NVMe drive is lit.
3. On the NVMe drive you plan to remove, push the latch release button to open the drive latch.

   See Remove an HDD or SSD Storage Drive.

4. Grasp the latch and pull the drive out of the drive slot.
5. Consider your next steps:

   • If you are replacing the drive, continue to Verify Removal of an NVMe Storage Drive, and then 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.

     For information on how to install a storage drive filler panel, see Remove and Install Filler Panels.
