Device Installation Or Removal Procedure; Hard Disk Drive - NEC EXPRESS 5800 User Manual

DEVICE INSTALLATION OR REMOVAL PROCEDURE

Install or remove a component from the server using the following procedures.

Hard Disk Drive

The server has three device bay slots available to install hard disks with the SCA2 interface (Ultra
160 SCSI) in the disk bay of the front of the server.
IMPORTANT:
For disk array configuration, specify RAID0, RAID1, RAID5 or
!
RAID0+1 as the RAID level.
All three slots may contain a hard disk approximately 25.4 mm (1 inch) high. The SCSI IDs (ID0
through ID2) are always assigned to hard disks as shown below.
The hard disk drive bays are connected to the SCSI connector on the system board when the
server is shipped. To use the hard disk drives in a disk array configuration, reconnect the cable
from the connector on the system board to which the SCSI controller is connected to the disk
array controller connector. For the cable reconnection, see "Disk Array Controller".
A dummy tray is installed in hard disk drive bays defined as SCSI ID1 and SCSI ID2. The
purpose of a dummy tray is to increase the cooling effect in the server. Install a dummy tray in
slots not containing a hard disk drive.
