how to install Lenovo PM1653 3.84 TB SAS SSD

  • Power down the server or storage enclosure if hot‑swap is not supported in your chassis, then identify an available 2.5" drive bay or hot‑swap tray compatible with the PM1653 drive carrier.
  • Open the drive tray or caddy, remove the existing drive if replacing, and prepare the PM1653 for installation by aligning it with the tray connectors and mounting holes.
  • Insert the PM1653 into the drive bay and secure it with the appropriate screws or carrier latches, ensuring the backplane connectors are clean and fully seated.
  • Connect the SAS data and power backplane cables (or the backplane’s hot‑swap connectors) to the PM1653, ensuring a solid and secure connection to the storage controller.
  • Power on the system, enter the server or storage controller management interface, and verify the drive is detected, initialize if required, and assign it to the desired array or pool according to your organization’s storage policy.
