Before you install drives in your server, verify that you have all the cables and any
other equipment specified in the documentation that comes with the internal drive.
You might also need to perform certain preinstallation activities. Some of the steps are
required only during the initial installation of an option.
Note:
The illustrations in this document might differ slightly from your hardware.
To install a non-hot-swap drive:
Attention: When you handle Electrostatic Discharge-Sensitive devices (ESD), take
precautions to avoid damage from static electricity. For details on handling these
devices, refer to the following Web site and search for ESD: http://www.ibm.com
1. Review the information in"Before you begin" on page 66 and in "Safety
information" on page 67.
2. Turn off the server and peripheral devices and then remove the cover and bezel.
(See "Removing the cover and bezel" on page 72.)
3. Remove the filler panel from the bay opening by pulling the filler panel away
from the server. You do not need the filler panel when you have a drive installed
in the bay.
Note:
The server's electromagnetic interference (EMI) integrity and cooling are
protected by having the non-hot-swap bays covered or occupied. When
you install a drive, save the filler panel from the bay, in case you later
remove the drive and do not replace it with another.
