Removing And Replacing Front-Panel Inserts; Dc Power Cables - Dell PowerEdge 4300 Installation And Troubleshooting Manual

3. Remove the computer cover and front bezel.
See "Removing the Computer Cover" and "Removing the Front Bezel" in
Chapter 7 .
4. Remove the metal insert from the drive bay that you will be using.
5. Slide the new drive into its bay until it snaps securely into place.
If necessary, you can adjust drive alignment by repositioning one or both rails.
6. Slide the system board tray out to the service position.
See "Accessing the Interior of Your System" in Chapter 7 for instructions.
7 . Connect a DC power cable and one of the connectors on the Ultra/Narrow SCSI
cable to the back of the drive (see Figure 9-1).
If other installed drives are in the way, temporarily move them out of the way.
Press in on the plastic drive rails at the front of the bay to disengage a drive, and
then slide the drive slightly toward the front of the chassis.
Refer to "DC Power Cables," found earlier in this chapter, to determine the cor-
rect DC power cable connector to use for the drive. Plug the DC power cable
connector into the four-pin power input connector on the back of the drive.
Select the connector on the Ultra/Narrow SCSI cable that most easily reaches the
new SCSI device, and press the cable connector firmly into the drive's interface
connector.
If you moved other drives at the beginning of this step, snap them back into
place.
8. Check all cable connections that may have been loosened during this procedure.
Arrange cables so that they will not catch on the computer covers or block the air-
flow of the fans or cooling vents.
9. If a front-panel insert on the front bezel blocks the bay in which you installed the
drive, remove the insert.
See "Removing and Replacing Front-Panel Inserts" found earlier in this chapter.
10. Close the system board tray.
11. Replace the front bezel and computer cover.
12. Reconnect the computer and peripherals to electrical outlets, and turn them on.
13. Test the SCSI devices.
To test a SCSI tape drive, refer to the documentation for the tape drive software
to perform a tape drive backup and verification test.
