Figure 9-5. Installing A Hard-Disk Drive In The Drive Cage - Dell 2200 User Manual

9. Install the SCSI drive(s) in the hard-disk drive
cage.
Slide the drive into the cage, align the drive's mount-
ing-screw holes with the holes in the drive cage, and
secure the drive with four screws (see Figure 9-5).
NOTE: The screws provided with drives purchased
from Dell include special screws with shallow heads.
Screws with larger heads may make it difficult to
reinstall the hard-disk drive cage.

10. Reinstall the hard-disk drive cage in the chassis
(see Figure 9-4).
Align the tabs on the drive cage with the rails on the
bottom of the upper drive cage, and then slide the
drive cage into position. Secure the drive cage with
the four mounting screws that you removed in step 6.
11. Attach a direct current (DC) power cable connec-
tor to the power input connector on each SCSI
drive.
See "DC Power Cables" in Chapter 8 for instructions
on which DC power cable to use.

12. Attach the SCSI cable to each SCSI drive.
For general cabling guidelines, see "SCSI Cable"
found earlier in this chapter.
For each drive, firmly press one of the cable's con-
nectors onto the 68-pin connector on the back of the
drive.
Match the colored strip on the SCSI cable to the
pin-1 side of the connector on the drive. (The con-
nectors are shaped so that they cannot be inserted the
wrong way.)
13. Attach the SCSI cable to the appropriate connec-
tor on the SCSI controller card or to the built-in
SCSI host adapter connector (SCSI) on the sys-
tem board.
If you are using the built-in SCSI host adapter, its
connector (SCSI) is near the top of the system board.
If you are using a SCSI controller card, see the docu-
mentation that came with the controller card.
Align the colored edge of the cable with the pin-1
end of the SCSI connector on the system board or SCSI
controller card. The cable and connector are also aligned
by a key on the cable end and a notch in the connector
shroud. Press the connectors together firmly.
14. Replace the computer cover and front bezel accord-
ing to the instructions in "Replacing the Computer
Cover" and "Replacing the Front Bezel" in
Chapter 6.
15. Then reconnect the computer and peripherals to their
power sources, and turn them on.
16. Install any required SCSI device drivers.
For information on installing the appropriate drivers
and preparing your SCSI hard-disk drive for use, see
Chapter 3, "Installing and Configuring SCSI
Drivers."
17. Test the SCSI drives.
Run the SCSI Devices Test Group of the system
diagnostics. See Chapter 2, "Using the Dell Server
Assistant CD," for information on running the sys-
tem diagnostics from the Dell Server Assistant CD.
See the chapter titled "Running the Diskette-Based
Diagnostics" in your Diagnostics and Troubleshooting
Guide for information on the SCSI Devices Test Group.
