    Warnings and Cautions These warnings and cautions apply whenever you remove the access cover of the system. Only a technically qualified person should integrate and configure the system. WARNINGS System power on/off: The on/off button (a convex button) on the front panel DOES NOT turn off the system AC power.

  • Page 83: Access Cover

    Access Cover Removing the Access Cover You need to remove the system access cover, and in some cases the front bezel, to reach components inside the system. Facing the front of the system, the access cover is on the right side for pedestal-mode servers, and on the top for rack-mode servers.

  • Page 84: Installing The Access Cover

    Installing the Access Cover 1. Before replacing the access cover, check that you have not left loose tools or parts inside the system. 2. Check that cables, add-in boards, and other components are properly installed. 3. Position the cover over the chassis so that the rows of tabs align with slots in the chassis. Slide the cover toward the front of the system until the tabs on the cover firmly engage in the chassis.
  • Page 85 8. Rotate the front subchassis left, away from the main chassis, until it stops (B in Figure 24). 9. Disconnect all cabling to the electronics bay (D in Figure 24). 10. Using the vertical edge of the electronics bay as a handle, rotate the bay right, away from the main chassis, until it stops (C in Figure 24).

  • Page 96: Fans

    Fans The SC450NX server contains five removable chassis fans (and can accept up to three more) to cool the boards and removable media drives. These chassis fans connect to the front panel board and are enclosed in a removable foam assembly. The integrated power supply fan(s) provides more cooling and airflow.

  • Page 97: Installing The System Fan Assembly

    Installing the System Fan Assembly 1. Observe the safety and ESD precautions at the beginning this chapter. 2. Position the fan assembly inside the chassis so that the individual fan cables can easily reach their connectors on the front panel board. 3.

  • Page 99: Installing An Individual System Fan

    Installing an Individual System Fan NOTE A general rule about correct airflow direction: The removable fan pulls air from in front of the chassis so that it flows across the boards and out the back. Thus, the fan must be oriented for the correct airflow direction. In general, the fan’s label is on the side from which air EXITS the fan.

  • Page 100: Installing Fans For High-Power Drives

    Installing Fans for High-Power Drives If you plan to use SCSI drives whose power exceeds 15 watts, you must install three additional system fans: two in the front fan assembly and one in the upper power supply bay. To perform this task, you must purchase a kit.
  • Page 101 6. Install two fans in the front fan assembly. See “Installing an Individual System Fan” on page 99. CAUTION The two fans you MUST install are numbered 6 and 7 in Figure 34 (page 98). 7. Connect the cable (D in Figure 35, page 100) from the fan you installed in the upper power supply bay to the connector on the power share board.

    Installing DIMMs CAUTIONS Use extreme care when installing a DIMM. Applying too much pressure can damage the socket. DIMMs are keyed and can be inserted in only one way. Mixing dissimilar metals might cause memory failures later, resulting in data corruption.

  • Page 109: Processors

    1. Holding the DIMM only by its edges, remove it from its antistatic package. 2. Orient the DIMM so that the two notches in the bottom edge of the DIMM align with the keyed socket on the memory module. 3. Insert the bottom edge of the DIMM into the socket, then press down firmly on the DIMM until it seats correctly.
