What is the safe way to move drive from one cage to another?

[michael123]

I have this green led light issue, I would like to check if that's not a Supermicro 5-in-3 cage problem.

How can I safely move the drive to another, unoccupied, cage?

shut down array, shut down system, unplug power, unplug sata, remove drive, enter drive in new chassis, plug in sata, plug in power, power up system ?

That's about it.

Are you using Seagate 3tb drives? They have a issue with most drive cages causing inverse led conditions for on and activity lights.
