2 Replacing System Components

This chapter describes how to replace system components in an InterServe 8000 server.

Before You Begin

Follow the instructions in Chapter 1 for opening the unit to access the internal components.
Before replacing parts, ensure the problem has been correctly identified so that you do not
inadvertently replace a properly working part. The troubleshooting chapter in the System Setup
document delivered with the system has a list of potential problems and errors your system may exhibit.
WARNING Heed all warnings and cautions in the accessing, servicing and upgrading instructions.
Personal injury and damage to equipment can occur if documented procedures are not
followed.
CAUTION The system produces high-leakage current. Flip the circuit breaker (if included) to the OFF position
when servicing or upgrading the base unit.
CAUTION Use an antistatic wrist strap for all servicing procedures to avoid the possibility of electrostatic
discharge (ESD). ESD can damage components inside the system.

Floppy Disk Drive or Combo Drive

Standard hardware for the server includes a floppy disk drive in the 3.5-inch slot. If your system
contains the combo drive (containing a floppy disk drive and a PC Card adapter), it is replaced in the
same way as the floppy disk drive. However, note the difference in cables as stated in the following
instructions.
To replace the floppy disk drive or combo drive:
1. Remove both side panels. The following figure shows the floppy disk drive from the back.
