Your server's basic configuration includes one CD drive and one 3.5-inch

Your server can have up to eight SCSI hard drives in the hot-swap bay behind
the front access door.

As you prepare to install drives, remember:
■
Do not use the top 5.25-inch drive bay for drives which have electronic
components exposed on the top. Drive mounting rails at the top of the
bay may damage any exposed electronic components.
■
Before you install a drive, see the drive's documentation for information
on configuring the drive, setting drive jumpers, and attaching cables.
■
IDE hard drives can be configured as single, master, slave, or cable-select.
