Replacing Internal Compact Flashes on J2320 and J2350 Routers
The internal compact flash provides primary storage for the
router and is installed in a slot on the bottom of the J2320 or J2350
chassis (see Figure 63). It can accommodate
software images, configuration files, and microcode. For information
about configuring the internal compact flash, see the JUNOS Software Administration Guide.
Note:
Use only compact flash cards purchased from Juniper Networks
for your J Series platform and model.

To replace the internal compact flash:
Place an electrostatic bag or antistatic mat
on a flat, stable surface.
Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding
strap to your bare wrist and connect the strap to the ESD point on
the chassis, or to an outside ESD point if the router is disconnected
from earth ground. For more information about ESD, see Preventing Electrostatic
Discharge Damage.
Press and release the power button to power off
the router. Wait for the POWER LED to turn off.
Remove the power cable from the power source receptacle.
Warning:
If the
fans are still rotating, wait until they stop before proceeding with
the next step.
With a Phillips screwdriver, loosen the pan head
screws that secure the internal compact flash slot cover.
Remove the compact flash slot cover.
Gently grasp the compact flash, and slide it out
of the compact flash slot (see Figure 64).
