Installing the Rear 2.5" Hard Drive

The SC826 model chassis supports an optional hard drive cage for two additional
2.5" hot-swappable hard drives. The hard drive cage installs in the rear of the chas-
sis next to the power supply. Once the hard drive cage has been installed, the 2.5"
hard drives may be removed without powering down the server.
Installing the 2.5" Rear Hard Drive Cage
1. Power down the system, lay the chassis on a flat, stable surface and remove
the chassis cover.
2. Orient the rear hard drive cage as shown (Figure 6-7), aligning the opening at
the end of the cage with the opening at the back of the chassis.
3. Place the hard drive cage into the chassis. Secure the front of the hard drive
cage to the chassis by fastening one screw inside the opening of the hard
drive cage as illustrated.
4. Secure the top of the hard drive cage to the chassis frame with two screws
fastened at the upper edge of the hard drive cage above the opening of the
hard drive cage.
5. Secure the back of the hard drive cage to the chassis with one screw as
shown above.
6. Replace the power cords and power up the server.
