1. Read the safety information in "Safety" on page v and "Installation guidelines" on page 33.
2. Make sure that the server top cover is in place and fully closed.
Attention: To maintain proper system cooling, do not operate the server for more than 10 minutes
without either a drive or filler panel installed in each bay.
3. Install the hard disk drive in the hot-swap bay:
• Make sure that the drive tray handle is open (as shown in the illustration).
• Remove the filler panel from the bay.
• Align the drive assembly with the guide rails in the bay.
• Gently push the drive assembly into the bay until the drive stops.
• Push the tray handle to the closed (locked) position.
• Check the hard disk drive status LED to make sure that the hard disk drive is operating correctly. If
the yellow hard disk drive status LED for a drive is lit continuously, that drive is faulty and must be
replaced. If the green hard disk drive activity LED is flashing, the drive is being accessed.
If you have other devices to install, do so now. Otherwise, go to "Completing the installation" on page 54.
Note: You might have to reconfigure the disk arrays after you install hard disk drives. See the RAID
documentation on the IBM ServeRAID Support CD for information about RAID controllers.
