Dell PowerEdge M620 Systems (For Dell PowerEdge VRTX Enclosure) Owner's Manual

Installing a hard drive/SSD

  • CAUTION: When a replacement hot-swappable hard drive/SSD is installed and the server module is powered on, the drive automatically begins to rebuild. Make absolutely sure that the replacement hard drive/SSD is blank or contains data that you wish to have over-written. Any data on the replacement hard drive/SSD is immediately lost after the drive is installed.
  • NOTE: Not all operating systems support hot-swappable drive installation. See the documentation supplied with your operating system.
  1. Open the hard-drive/SSD carrier handle.
  2. Insert the hard-drive/SSD carrier into the drive bay. Carefully align the channel on the hard-drive/SSD carrier with the appropriate drive slot on the server module.
  3. Push the drive carrier into the slot until the handle makes contact with the server module.
  4. Rotate the carrier handle to the closed position while pushing the carrier into the slot until it locks into place. The status LED indicator displays a steady green light if the drive is installed correctly. The drive carrier LED green indicator flashes as the drive rebuilds.
