To remove or install a drive, you must turn off the server first, unless you are
removing or installing a hot-swap hard disk drive. Diskette drives, tape drives,
and CD-ROM drives are removable-media drives. You can install removable-media
drives in bays 1, 2, 3, and 4. You can install SCSI hard disk drives in bays 4, 5, 6,
and 7.
v The server comes with a 3.5-inch, 1.44 MB diskette drive in bay 3, an integrated
drive electronics (IDE) CD-ROM drive in bay 1, and a hard disk drive in bay 7
(in some models).
v The xSeries 220 server supports five 3.5-inch drives; however, the server
supports only one diskette drive.
v The diskette drive uses 1 MB and 2 MB diskettes. For optimum use, format
1 MB diskettes to 720 KB and format 2 MB diskettes to 1.44 MB.
v The xSeries 220 server supports two 5.25-inch drives and four SCSI hard disk
drives. The server does not support IDE hard disk drives. Some models support
hot-swap hard disk drives. Other models support only non-hot-swap hard disk
drives. Refer to the documentation that comes with the server for additional
information.
The server supports four 1-inch (26 mm) slim, 3.5-inch SCSI hard disk drives in
the hard disk drive bays (4, 5, 6, and 7). You can install four non-hot-swap hard
disk drives in the models that have the standard non-hot-swap drive cage. You
can install three hot-swap hard disk drives and one non-hot-swap hard disk
drive in the models that come with the hot-swap drive cage. Both the
non-hot-swap and hot-swap drive cages hold a maximum of three hard disk
drives. The drive cages comprise bays 5, 6, and 7.
v Bay 2 comes without a device installed. This bay is for a 5.25-inch, half-high,
removable-media drive, such as a tape backup drive.
v Bay 4 is for a 3.5-inch, slim, removable-media drive or SCSI hard disk drive.
