8.1 Replacing a drive in a 60-bay unit
The Recovery Guru in SANtricity System Manager monitors the drives in the unit and can notify
you of an impending drive failure or an actual drive failure. When a drive has failed, its amber
Attention LED is on. You can hot-swap a failed drive while the unit is receiving I/O operations.
Before you begin
You have a replacement drive that is supported by Bosch for the controller unit or
expansion unit.
You have an ESD wristband, or you have taken other antistatic precautions.
About this procedure
Use this procedure to replace a drive in the following controller units or expansion units:
Type Number of drives Type of drives
60-bay controller unit 60 3.5-inch SAS drives in carriers or 2.5-inch SAS
drives in carriers
60-bay expansion unit 60
The 60-bay controller unit and the 60-bay expansion unit consist of 5drive drawers that each
contain 12drive slots. Drive drawer1 is at the top, and drive drawer5 is at the bottom. The
drives are numbered from 0 to 11 in each drive drawer.
Rules for handling drives
The drives are fragile. Improper drive handling is a leading cause of drive failure. Follow these
rules to avoid damaging the drives in your unit:
Prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD)
Keep the drive in the ESD bag until you are ready to install it.
Do not insert a metal tool or knife into the ESD bag. Open the ESD bag by hand or
cut the top off with a pair of scissors.
Keep the ESD bag and any packing materials in case you must return a drive later.
