Installing a Hard Drive

1. With the drive carrier handle open fully, place the drive carrier into the peripheral drive bay.
2. Slide the drive carrier all the way into the drive bay.
3. Using the drive carrier handle, firmly push the assembly into the bay until the drive docks with
the SCSI backplane connector.
4. Swing the drive carrier handle closed until it latches.

Hot-swap System Fans

The six (60x60x38-mm) cooling fans provide 50 CFM of airflow each. The server system supports
only a fully populated system fan configuration. However, the server system will continue to meet
the thermal specifications if a fan fails. The six fans are mounted side-by-side in the fan bay across
the center section of the chassis. The fans can be hot-swapped; they can be removed and re-
installed without turning the server system power off.
The procedures in this section describe how to identify a failed fan and replace a failed fan. See
Cooling Subsystem for more information about the operation of the system fans.
