Hi, if you are replacing multiple hard drives in a Dell PowerEdge server, it is generally recommended to follow the same procedure for each drive, one at a time. This helps ensure that you are replacing the correct drive and that the system has time to fully recognize each drive swap. Hot swapping multiple hard drives at the same time are discouraged as it may cause an excessive workload on the system and result in data loss or other issues.
