How to install HPE 1.20 TB Internal SAS HDD
- Prepare the host server or storage array: Identify the appropriate 2.5-inch drive bay or hot-swappable tray compatible with your system, and ensure static-free handling.
- Power-down or follow hot-swap procedures: If your system supports hot swapping, follow the vendor’s hot-swap guidelines; otherwise safely power down the server before installation.
- Open the drive bay or tray: Remove the bezel or access panel as required by your chassis, and slide out the empty slot or tray to prepare for the new HDD.
- Insert the HDD into the bay: Align the drive with the backplane or sled, firmly slide it into position until it seats, and engage any latches or locking mechanisms as specified by your system.
- Close the bay and power on: Return the drive tray to the chassis, secure the bay, and power the system back on or resume from standby. The drive should be detected by the backplane or storage controller.
- Verify recognition and configure: Use the system BIOS, RAID controller utility, or storage management software to confirm the drive is detected, assign it to a pool or array, and format or initialize as required by your storage policy.
