Cobalt RaQ 4 User Manual 165
Requirements
Before adding the second hard disk drive, make sure that you have the following:
• a hard disk drive that meets the specifications in Table 5.
• a Phillips screwdriver
If the RaQ 4 is mounted on an equipment rack, remove the RaQ 4 from the rack
and take it to a service area. Do not attempt this upgrade while the RaQ 4 is still
in the equipment rack.
Overview
To add a second hard disk drive or to replace a failed hard disk drive, there are a
number of steps involved. These steps are explained in the following sections.
1. Power down the RaQ 4. See “Powering down” on page 155.
2. Open the case of the RaQ 4.
3. If applicable, remove the failed hard disk drive.
4. Install a new hard disk drive.
5. Close the case of the RaQ 4.
!
Caution: If you are replacing a failed hard disk drive in a RaQ 4r
server, ensure that you are installing a hard disk drive of the same
capacity as the one you are replacing.
✍
Note: If you have to replace an original hard disk drive (meaning a
hard disk drive that Cobalt Networks installed in the server), please
notify Cobalt Networks Technical Support and arrange to return the
hard disk drive.
