DVD-ROM and Floppy Drive Installation

The top cover of the chassis must be opened to gain full access to the DVD-ROM
and fl oppy drive bays. The 5017R-WRF accomodates only slim-line DVD-ROM
drives. Side mounting brackets are needed to mount a slim-line DVD-ROM drive
in the 5017R-WRF server. You must power down the system before installing or
removing a fl oppy or DVD-ROM drive.
Removing the Chassis Cover
1. Grasp the two handles on either side and pull the unit straight out until it
locks (you will hear a "click").
2. Depress the two buttons on the top of the chassis to release the top cover
and at the same time, push the cover away from you until it stops. You can
then lift the top cover from the chassis to gain full access to the inside of the
server.
Removing/Installing a Drive
1. With the chassis cover removed, unplug the power and data cables from the
drive you want to remove.
2. Locate the locking tab at the rear of the drive. It will be on the left side of the
drive when viewed from the front of the chassis.
3. Pull the tab away from the drive and push the drive unit out the front of the
chassis.
4. Add a new drive by following this procedure in reverse order. You may hear a
faint *click* of the locking tab when the drive is fully inserted.
5. Remember to reconnect the data and power cables to the drive before replac-
ing the chassis cover and restoring power to the system.
Please be aware of the following:
The fl oppy disk drive cable has seven twisted wires.
A color mark on a cable typically designates the location of pin 1.
A single fl oppy disk drive ribbon cable has 34 wires and two connectors to
provide for two fl oppy disk drives. The connector with twisted wires always
6-8
