  6. Close the front lever to properly seat the drive.
  7. Perform a disk wipe on the old hard drive/SSD. See the latest revision of the Disk Management Tool Service Manual, PN 5500610-1EN available from the online documentation library.

Finalization

  1. Turn on the ICN. See ICN On/Off Procedure.
    note:

    For the first three or four minutes, the LEDs illuminate only at the rear of the ICN, next to the power cables. After three to four minutes, the ICN fans are audible and the LED on the front of the ICN starts flashing.

  2. Configure the new hard drive/SSD, using VRE Reconfiguration.
  3. Perform Check Scan.
