Replacing or Adding Hard Disk Drives

Note – Up to two IDE hard disk drives are supported in the Sun Java Workstation
W1100z and up to four SCSI hard disk drives are supported in the Sun Java
Workstation W2100z. The hard disk drives must both be the same type. Therefore, in
a 1P (W1100z) system, a second hard disk drive must be an EIDE drive; in a 2P
(W2100z) system, additional hard disk drives must be a SCSI drive.
4.5.1.1 Replacing a Hard Disk Drive
Note – The replacement hard disk drive must be configured the same as the drive
being replaced.
This procedure describes how to remove a hard disk drive. See
performing this procedure.
To remove the hard disk drive:
1. Turn off the system and all of the peripherals connected to it, then unplug the AC
power cord from the system.
2. Remove the left-side access panel.
3. Disconnect the power and data cables from the drive (1).
4. Grasp the hard-disk-drive carrier handle at its center (2), then gently withdraw the
drive from the cage.
5. If you are replacing the hard drive, unfasten the four screws securing the hard
disk drive to the carrier and remove the drive.
Installation is the reverse of this procedure.
