Replacement Instructions

Follow the instructions in this document carefully. Failure to follow these instructions could

damage your equipment and void its warranty.

Online instructions are available at http://www.apple.com/support/diy/.

Working Safely Inside the Xserve

Always touch the Xserve enclosure to discharge static electricity before you touch any

components inside the Xserve. To avoid generating static electricity, do not walk around the

room until you have nished working inside the server and have replaced the cover. To minimize

the possibility of damage due to static discharge, wear an antistatic wrist strap while you work

inside the Xserve.

Warning: Always shut down the Xserve and disconnect the power cords before opening

it to avoid damaging its internal components or the components you are installing. Don’t

open the server while it is turned on. Even after you shut down the Xserve, its internal

components can be very hot. Let it cool before you open it.

Tools Required

The only tool required for this procedure is a Phillips #1 screwdriver.

Removing the Xserve from a Rack

Alert users that the server will be unavailable for a period of time.

Shut down the Xserve (see the Xserve User’s Guide for help) and then wait to let the Xserve

internal components cool.

Warning: Always shut down the Xserve before opening it to avoid damaging its internal

components or the components you want to install or remove. Don’t open the Xserve

or try to install or remove items inside while it is turned on. Even after you shut down

the Xserve, its internal components can be very hot. Let it cool down for 5 to 10 minutes

before you open it.
