To remove a disk module
IMPORTANT: If a disk module has been bound into a LUN, do not move it to
another slot unless you do not care about the data on the LUN. Each module has
LUN identifying information written when it is bound. Moving it to another slot can
make information on the original LUN inaccessible.
Generally, you should not remove a disk module unless its amber check light is on.
Remove the disk module from the slot, as shown next.
Continue to the next section to install the replacement disk module.
