CAUTION Protect the drive from static electricity by leaving it in its anti-static bag until you are
ready to install it. Before handling the drive, touch any unpainted metal surface to
discharge static electricity. When you remove the drive from the anti-static bag,
handle it only by the frame.
Do not touch the electrical components. Place the drive on the anti-static bag
whenever you set it down.
Hard disk drives are very susceptible to mechanical shock and can be damaged by
a drop as short as one-quarter of an inch. Take care when unpacking and handling
the drive. If the drop would crack an egg, it will damage the drive.
1. Log off all users and if necessary, back-up files.
2. Follow instructions in your network operating system (NOS) documentation to gracefully shut
down all networking software and applications.
3. Press the power switch on the HP NetServer's control panel when prompted by the operating
system.
4. Disconnect the power cables.
WARNING The power supplies will continue to provide standby current to the NetServer until
the power cable is disconnected.
5. Gain access to the HP NetServer by referring to Replacing the Bezel and Replacing the
Covers.
CAUTION Wear a wrist strap and use a static-dissipating work surface connected to the
chassis when handling components. Ensure the metal of the wrist strap contacts
your skin.
6. Disconnect signal and power connectors from the drive to be replaced.
7. Use the T15 driver to remove the to screws that hold the tray to the front of the chassis.
Replacing Non-Hot Swap Drives
NOTE Check that the replacement drive has proper SCSI ID and termination settings.
1. Replace the failed drive with the new one in the mounting tray.
2. Side the tray into the chassis.
3. Reconnect power and signal cables.
These are keyed and ensure the cables are fully seated.
4. Screw in the two Torx head screws that hold the tray to the front of the chassis.
5. Re-position the bezel and covers and resume operations.
Replacing PCI-Latch Hardware
The same PCI-latch hardware is used in both models of the HP NetServers (LC 2000/LC 2000r). The
NetServer should be shut down before removing PCI latch hardware.
