Extracting and Inserting the Power Supply Unit

Warning

The power supply is only hot-swappable if you have a redundant system with two power supplies installed. If there is only one power supply installed, before removing or replacing the power supply, first take the appliance out of service, turn off all peripheral devices connected to the system, turn off the system by pressing the power button, and unplug the AC power cord from the system or wall outlet.

The PSU can be replaced in case it fails.
