HP StorageWorks D2200sb PCIe Storage Blade Maintenance and Service Guide

Removal and replacement procedures 24
Remove the drives
Use this procedure to remove the drives when servicing other components. To replace a failed or broken
drive, see "Drive (on page 28)."
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the drives and the
internal system components to cool before touching them.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to electrical components, properly ground the storage blade
before beginning any installation procedure. Improper grounding can cause ESD.
CAUTION: To prevent improper cooling and thermal damage, do not operate the storage blade
or the enclosure unless the first drive bay is populated with a drive, and drive bays 2 and 3 and
all device bays are populated with either a component or a blank.
CAUTION: Thermal regulation is maintained only when the drive drawer is closed. The drive
temperature alarm is triggered under the following conditions:
• A slow beep and flash (1 every 5 seconds) indicate that the drive drawer is open. The drives
are not fully protected by system air flow.
• A fast beep and flash (2 per second)—To avoid drive damage or data loss and storage blade
shutdown, close the drive drawer immediately.
When the drives reach critical temperatures, the system shuts down.
1. Back up all data on the storage blade.
2. Power down the partner server blade (on page 22).
3. Remove the storage blade (on page 22).
4. Remove the drives.
5. Place an identifying label on each drive to indicate the drive bay from which it was removed.
6. Place the drives in a static-free environment.
When the service procedures are complete, return each drive to the bay in the drive drawer from which it
was removed.
