• Touch the static-protective package that contains the component to any unpainted metal surface on the
server; then, remove it from the package and place it on a static-protective surface.

For a complete list of supported optional devices for the server, see
serverproven/index.shtml
• If there are more than one drives to be installed, determine installation order based on the following rules:
– Start with solid-state drives, and proceed with hard-disk drives.
– When installing one 3.5-inch solid-state drive and one 3.5-inch hard-disk drive, install the solid-state
drive in bay 1 and the hard-disk drive in bay 3.
– Start with the drive with the lowest capacity.
– Start with bay 1, proceed to bay 2, and bay 3.
