Disk Drive Bay Fans
See Chapter 6, "System Hardware," for technical information on the disk drive bay fans.
To replace the disk drive bay fans:
1.
Disconnect the fan power cable from the power supply connector.
2.
Note the cable position and airflow direction of the old fan. Pull up on the metal tab attached
to the fan until it clears the chassis, carefully guiding the wires and connectors on the fan out
of the cable access hole at the bottom of the fan cage. Note the routing of the wires and
connectors on the old fan, as the new fan cables and connectors should be routed the same
way. See the following figure.
3.
Route the power cable of the new fan through the cable access hole at the bottom of the fan
cage.
4.
Insert the new fan into the fan cage until it snaps into place.
5.
Reconnect the fan power cable to the power supply connector.
CMOS/Clock Lithium Battery
The CMOS/clock lithium battery is located on the right side of the system board as seen from the
rear of the base unit. The battery may be hidden under installed expansion cards. See the
following figure.
After you remove the battery, the system will lose its operating parameters stored in CMOS
memory. As a result, the system BIOS parameters are lost. Parameters include date, time,
hardware configuration, and other data.
After you install the new battery, you must reset the date and time and reconfigure the BIOS. See
System Setup for details on updating and configuring the BIOS.
