3. Remove the storage book (see Removing the storage book).
4. Disconnect the cables from the bottom drive backplane, if needed.
5. Open the retention clip on the flash power module slot. Press the blue tab outward to open the retention clip (see the following illustration for the location of the flash power slots).
