To install a drive in a hot-swap drive bay:
1.
Review the information in "Before you begin" on page 45.
Attention: To maintain proper system cooling, do not operate the server for
more than two minutes without either a drive or a filler panel
installed for each bay.
2.
Remove the filler panel from one of the empty hot-swap bays by inserting your
finger into the depression on the filler panel and pulling it away from the server.
3.
Install the hard disk drive in the hot-swap bay:
a.
Ensure the tray handle is open (that is, perpendicular to the drive).
b. Align the drive/tray assembly with the guide rails in the bay.
c.
Gently push the drive/tray assembly into the bay until the drive connects to
the backplane.
d. Push the tray handle down until it locks.
4.
Check the hard disk drive status indicators to verify that the hard disk drive is
operating properly.
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.
