Attention: Simple-swap hard disk drives are not hot-swappable. Disconnect all power from the server you
remove or install a simple-swap hard disk drive.
To install a simple-swap hard disk drive, complete the following steps:
1. Touch the static-protective package that contains the drive to any unpainted metal surface on the server;
then, remove the drive from the package and place it on a static-protective surface.
2. Align the drive assembly with the guide rails in the bay.
3. Pull the loops of the drive assembly toward each other; then, carefully slide the drive assembly into the
drive bay until it clicks into place, and release the loops.
Note: Do not release the loops on the drive assembly until it is completely seated.
4. Go to "Completing the FRU replacement" on page 200.

Power and signal cables for internal drives

The server uses cables to connect SATA attached, simple-swap SATA, hot-swap SATA and hot-swap SAS
devices to the power supply and to the system board. (See "System-board internal connectors" on page
131 for the location of system-board connectors.) Review the following information before connecting
power and signal cables to internal drives:
• The drives that are preinstalled in the server come with power and signal cables attached. If you replace
any drives, remember which cable is attached to which drive.
• When you install a drive, make sure that one of the signal cable drive connectors is connected to the
drive and that the connector at the other end of the signal cable is connected to the system board or a
compatible adapter or controller that you have installed.
• When you route a cable, make sure that it does not block the airflow to the rear of the drives or over
the microprocessor or DIMMs.
The following cables are provided:
