I have two FC4700s and would like to swap the larger drives from one system to the other. Can this be done by powering down swapping them and powering up? Will the system automatically discover the new drives? I have no raid groups or luns established and no hosts connected. Should the PSM drives be left as is in each system? Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks.
 
Yes, you can move drives between units. With or without power applied. As long as they are not configured there should be no problems. The PSM or Flare drives should not be moved as it will make the machine unusable.
