ERVER 6028R-TR/TRT User's Manual
Caution: Regardless of how many hard drives are installed, all drive carriers must
remain in the drive bays to maintain proper airflow. Use caution when working
around the backplane. Do not touch the backplane with any metal objects and
make sure no ribbon cables touch the backplane or obstruct the holes, which aid
in proper airflow.
Hard Drive Backplane
The hard drives plug into a backplane that provides power, drive ID and bus termi-
nation. A RAID controller can be used with the backplane to provide data security.
The operating system you use must have RAID support to enable the hot-swap
capability of the hard drives. The backplane is already preconfigured, so no jumper
or switch configurations are required.
DVD-ROM Installation (Optional)
The top cover of the chassis must be opened to gain full access to the DVD-ROM
drive bay. The 6028R-TR/TRT accomodates only slim type DVD-ROM drives. Side
mounting brackets are typically needed to mount a slim DVD-ROM drive in the
server.
Accessing the Inside of the Chassis
1. Grasp the two handles on either side and pull the unit straight out until it
locks (you will hear a "click").
2. Next, depress the two buttons on the top of the chassis to release the top
cover and at the same time, push the cover away from you until it stops. You
can then lift the top cover from the chassis to gain full access to the inside of
the server.
