The Solid State Drive (SSD) is a data storage device that uses integrated circuit assemblies as memory to store data persistently. The SSD Customer Replaceable Unit (CRU) stores the SBC 5400 platform operating system, application software, and billing files. The SSD product code is SBC-5400-SSDxxx-SPARE.
Parts and Tools Required
- Electrostatic discharge (ESD) strap
- Replacement Solid State Drive
- #2 Phillips-head screwdriver
- Torque driver with #2 Phillips bit.
To prevent damage from electrostatic discharge, an ESD strap is provided in the accessory kit. See Connecting ESD Wrist Strap to install it.
Replacing the Solid State Drive
Input power to the chassis must be removed before changing the Solid State Drive.
Perform the following procedure to replace the Solid State Drive:
- If the application is running, gracefully shut down the application.
- Remove power from the chassis.
- Attach an Electrostatic Discharge wrist strap to the ESD grounding point on the rear panel of the chassis, and place the other end around your wrist (see Connecting ESD Wrist Strap for details).
Use a #2 Phillips screwdriver to loosen the 2 captive screws (a spring-loaded screw that does not detach from the device) securing the tray of the SSD being replaced as shown below.
Pull the captive screws until the SSD disengages from the SBC 5400 chassis.
Remove the SSD and place it into the ESD protective bag.
Remove the new SSD from the ESD bag and insert it fully into the empty SSD slot.
Tighten the captive screw to 10 inch/lbs using the torque driver.
Reapply power to SBC 5400 chassis (refer to appropriate Power Supply CRU for guidance).
Verify that the SSD LED is Green (located to the left of the SSD).
Unplug the ESD wrist strap from the front of the chassis.
CRU Storage
All SBC 5400 CRUs are shipped in electrostatic discharge bags and should be handled using appropriate ESD precautions.
The storage environment for these CRUs is:
- Humidity must be less than 95% (non-condensing)
- Temperature must be between -40C and +70C.
The ESD Susceptibility symbol warns of the presence of Ribbon devices susceptible to electrostatic discharge. Do not handle equipment without wearing a properly grounded ESD wrist strap.
