Installing a Hard Drive

CAUTION: Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician.

You should only perform troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in

your product documentation, or as directed by the online or telephone service

and support team. Damage due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is

not covered by your warranty. Read and follow the safety instructions that came

with the product.

CAUTION: Use only hard drives that have been tested and approved for use with

the SAS backplane.

CAUTION: When installing a hard drive, ensure that the adjacent drives are fully

installed. Inserting a hard-drive carrier and attempting to lock its handle next to a

partially installed carrier can damage the partially installed carrier's shield spring

and make it unusable.

If applicable, remove the front bezel

. See

"Removing the Front Bezel" on

page 27.

If applicable, remove the drive blank from the bay. See "Removing a Drive

Blank" on page 29.
