You joke but you'd be surprised how many people will just yank a drive or two while the server is running and then complain when they can't boot off of them. The fact that even HP doesn't support pulling drives as a backup method helps us out in those situations but when a few words (obvious as they may seem) can help avoid a potentially big problem it's worth stating the obvious.

haha, I love this advice.You mean we can't do hot upgrades by replacing all the disks at once while the server is up?That would be a great feature.I'm getting on the phone with my sales engineer now.

That's pretty much it.Make sure you power down the server prior to removing the 4.1 disks.
