Use this information to remove the hard disk drive cage.
Before you remove the hard disk drive cage, complete the following
steps:
- Read Safety and Installation guidelines.
- If the compute node is installed in a chassis, remove it (see Removing a compute node from a chassis for instructions).
- Carefully lay the compute node on a flat, static-protective surface, orienting the compute node with the bezel pointing toward you.
To remove the hard disk drive cage, complete the following steps.
- Remove the cover (see Removing the compute node cover).
- Remove storage drives, optional drive components, and hard disk drive bay fillers. See Removing a hot-swap hard disk drive, Removing a 1.8-inch solid state drive, or Removing a solid state drive mounting sleeve.
- Remove the hard disk drive backplane (see Removing a hard disk drive backplane).
- Using a T10 Torx screwdriver, remove the four screws from the cage and rotate the cage from under the compute node front panel; then, remove the cage from the compute node at an angle.
If you are instructed to return the hard disk drive cage,
follow all packaging instructions, and use any packaging materials
for shipping that are supplied to you.
