Removing / replacing a drive
Swapping drives
The hot swap function is available on the RAID 1 array and can be operated during run time.
RAID rebuilding will be processed automatically in the background and the ACS-75170 RAID
subsystem will record its progress. If the host system is shut down or powered off abnormally,
the ACS-75170 RAID subsystem will continue the disk rebuilding process after power is turned
on again.
A hard disk should not be replaced when the system is turned off. Doing so
may leads to loss of data.
What if a disk fails?
If a disk drive fails, or a key switch is turned off, the red disk activity indicator of its disk carrier
will light and the alarm will sound (sound when only disk fails). When this happens, you can
replace the failed disk with a new one, then turn the key switch on.
Removing a drive from a fixed connector drive carrier
1. Unlock the appropriate disk carrier. The
red disk activity indicator will light.
2. Slide the drive carrier out of its slot.
3. Slide the disk drive to the front of the
carrier so that the SATA connector is freed
from the drive carrier.
4. Lift out the disk drive.
