Figure 15. Installing a drive
All drive connectors are on the same bus. If the two drives are both SAS hard disk drives, you can use
them to implement and manage a redundant array of independent disks (RAID) level-1 array. See
"Configuring a RAID array" on page 268 for information about RAID configuration.
To install a drive, complete the following steps.
1. Read the Safety topic and the "Installation guidelines" on page 233.
2. Shut down the operating system, turn off the blade server, and remove the blade server from the
BladeCenter unit. See "Removing the blade server from a BladeCenter unit" on page 235.
3. Carefully lay the blade server on a flat, static-protective surface, with the cover side up.
4. Open and remove the blade server cover. See "Removing the blade server cover" on page 237.
5. Locate the connector for the drive.
6. Place the drive 1 into the drive tray and push it toward the rear of the blade, into the connector
until the drive moves past the lever at the front of the tray.
Attention: Do not press on the top of the drive. Pressing the top might damage the drive.
7. Install and close the blade server cover. See "Installing and closing the blade server cover" on page
239.
