Different types of drives enable your server to read multiple types of media and store
data in different formats. Depending on your server model, you might have one or
more of the following drives installed.
• Diskette
• Hard disk
• CD-ROM
• Tape
Your server comes with an IDE CD-ROM drive installed in bay 1, a 3.5-in., 1.44 MB
diskette drive in bay 3, and a hard disk drive in bay 5. For instructions on installing
drives in bays 1 and 3, see "CD-ROM drive" on page 76 and "Floppy disk drive" on
