Installing the Intel
SBESCSI
®
The Intel
Blade Server SCSI Expansion Module SBESCSI supports up to two hot-swap SCSI hard
disk drives and up to two standard form-factor I/O cards or two small form-factor I/O cards.
To help ensure proper cooling and system reliability, make sure that:
•
Each of the blade bays on the front of the SBCE unit has either a blade server or filler blade
installed.
•
A removed hot-swap blade server or filler blade is replaced within 1 minute of removal.
•
Each of the SCSI hard disk drive bays on the SCSI storage expansion unit contains either a hot-
swap SCSI hard disk drive or a filler panel.

Attention: Static electricity can damage electronic devices and your blade server. To avoid
damage, keep static-sensitive devices in their non-conductive packages until you are ready to install
them.
To reduce the possibility of electrostatic discharge, observe the following precautions:
•
Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up around you.
•
Handle the device carefully, holding it by its edges or its frame.
•
Do not touch solder joints, pins, or exposed printed circuitry.
•
Do not leave the device where others can handle and damage it.
•
While the device is still in its non-conductive package, touch it to an unpainted metal part of the
SBCE chassis for at least 2 seconds. This drains static electricity from the package and from
your body.
•
Remove the device from its package and install it directly on the blade server without setting the
device down. If it is necessary to set down the device, place it back into its non-conductive
package. Do not place the device on your SBCE chassis or on a metal surface.
