1. If the application is running, gracefully shut down the application.
2. Remove power from the chassis.
3. Remove the bezel from the front panel of the chassis using the procedure on the page SBC 5400 Bezel.
4. Attach an Electrostatic Discharge wrist strap to the ESD grounding point on the front panel of the chassis, and place the other end around your wrist (see Connecting ESD Wrist Strap for details)

5. Use a #2 Phillips screwdriver to loosen the captive screw (a spring-loaded screw that does not detach from the device) securing the lever of the SSD being replaced as shown below.
