or 7:
1. Review the safety precautions listed in "Safety information" on page 117.
2. Read the information in "Preinstallation steps" on page 48.
3. Turn off the server and all attached devices. Disconnect all external cables and
power cords; then remove the side cover. See "Removing the side cover" on
page 40 for details.
4. Remove the frame-support bracket and disconnect the fan cable from the
connector on the system board. See "Removing the frame-support bracket" on
page 41 for details.
5. If your server has hard disk drives preinstalled in the drive cage, disconnect
the power and signal cables from the rear of the drives.
6. Rotate the drive cage out of the server until it locks into place with the
drive-cage-retention tab. The open ends of the drive slots and installed drives
will face you.
Note: Ensure that the drive cage locks into place over the drive-cage-retention
tab by pressing the drive cage all the way up.

obtained your optional drive from IBM, the guide rails are blue plastic.

lock into place in the drive cage. Clear any cables that might impede the
replacement of the drive cage.
