To install a drive in a hard disk drive bay, complete the following steps.
Attention:
than 10 minutes without either a drive or a filler panel installed in each bay.
1. Read the safety information that begins on page v, and "Installation guidelines"
2. Remove the filler panel from one of the empty hard disk drive bays.
3. Install the hard disk drive in the hard disk drive bay:
If you have other optional devices to install or remove, do so now. Otherwise, go to
"Completing the installation" on page 24.

Installing an additional microprocessor

The following notes describe the type of microprocessor that the server supports
and other information that you must consider when installing a microprocessor:

a. Make sure that the tray handle is open (that is, perpendicular to the drive).
b. Align the drive assembly with the guide rails in the bay.
c. Gently push the drive assembly into the bay until the drive stops.
d. Push the tray handle to the closed (locked) position.
e. Check the hard disk drive status LED to verify that the hard disk drive is
operating correctly.
If the amber hard disk drive status LED for a drive is lit continuously, that

Important: Dual-core and quad-core microprocessors are not interchangeable
and cannot be used in the same server. For example, if the server has a
dual-core microprocessor, you cannot install a quad-core microprocessor as the
