• Locate the documentation that comes with the drive and follow those instructions in addition to the
instructions in this chapter.
• Make sure that you have all the cables and other equipment that are specified in the documentation that
comes with the drive.
• The server supports one ultra-slim SATA DVD drive.
To install a DVD drive, complete the following steps:
Note: The DVD drive is available on some models.
Step 1. Read the safety information that begins on "Safety" on page v and "Installation guidelines" on
page 116.
Step 2. Turn off the server and peripheral devices and disconnect the power cords and all external cables.
Note: When you disconnect the power source from the server, you lose the ability to view the LEDs
because the LEDs are not lit when the power source is removed. Before you disconnect the
power source, make a note of which LEDs are lit, including the LEDs that are lit on the operation
information panel and LEDs inside the server on the system board.
Step 3. Remove the cover (see "Removing the cover" on page 119).
Step 4. Remove the DVD drive filler panel if it is installed. Locate the blue release tab on the rear of the DVD
drive filler panel; then, while you press the tab, push the DVD drive filler panel out of the drive bay.
