• Read "Installation guidelines" on page 92 to ensure that you work safely.
• Power off the server and disconnect all power cords for this task.
• Prevent exposure to static electricity, which might lead to system halt and loss of data, by keeping static-
sensitive components in their static-protective packages until installation, and handling these devices with
an electrostatic-discharge wrist strap or other grounding system.

Procedure
Step 1. Touch the static-protective package that contains the backplane to any unpainted surface on the
outside of the server. Then, take the backplane out of the package and place it on a static-
protective surface.
Step 2. Connect the cables to the backplane. See "2.5-inch/3.5-inch drive backplane (power)" on page 61
and "2.5-inch/3.5-inch drive backplane (signal)" on page 62.
Step 3. Align the two pins on the backplane with the corresponding holes in the chassis.

Step 4. Lower the backplane into the chassis. Ensure that the pins pass through the holes and the
backplane is fully seated in place.
