Hot-swap drive replacement
Follow these instructions to replace a front SSD in the ThinkAgile CP compute block appliance.
Each ThinkAgile CP compute block appliance supports Intel 240GB solid-state drives (SSDs). These drives
are used for installing the operating system and no user data are stored on these drives. These drives are
used in RAID 1 mode.
Always replace failed data drives as soon as possible. The following indicate a failed front SSD:
• On cloud controller or portal
• The yellow status LED on the node front panel is illuminated.

board), drive backplanes, or drive cables, back up all important data stored on drives.
• Before you remove any RAID array components, back up all RAID configuration information.
• If one or more NVMe solid-state drives are to be removed, disable them in OS before removal.
