IMPORTANT: If you removed a hard drive without plans of installing a new
one, you must reinstall the mounting screws at their pre-installed location
for future use, then reinstall the HDD carrier in the chassis for the proper
cooling of the system.
Configuring a SCSI Hard Drive
The steps listed below give an overview of the SCSI hard drive
configuration procedure:
1. Install the SCSI hard drive.
2. Install the SCSI controller board.
Refer to the "Installing a PCI Expansion Board" section for
detailed procedures.
3. Route the SCSI drive cables.
Refer to the SCSI Cable Installation Instructions document that
came with the SCSI cable option kit for detailed procedures.
4. Set up the SCSI configuration.
Refer to the documentation that came with the SCSI controller
board for detailed procedures.
To install a SCSI hard drive:
1. Perform the pre-installation procedures described earlier.
2. Select which drive bay you will use to install the new hard
drive.
If the desired drive bay is occupied, remove the currently
installed drive following the procedures described in the
"Removing a Hard Drive" section.
If the desired drive bay is empty, perform step 3 of the
"Removing a Hard Drive" section, then remove four mounting
screws from the HDD carrier. You will use these screws to
install the new drive.
3. Install the new SCSI hard drive in its carrier:
If you are installing the new drive in a previously occupied
drive bay, use the HDD carrier and mounting screws you
removed from the old drive.
If you are installing the new drive in an empty drive bay, use
the HDD carrier and mounting screws you removed from that
drive bay.
a. Align the new hard drive on the carrier.
b. Secure the hard drive assembly with the four mounting
screws.
c. Slide the hard drive assembly into the chassis.
Configuring a SATA Hard Drive
Configuring a SATA hard drive is a two-step process that includes:
1. Install the SATA hard drive.
2. Set up the SATA configuration.
For detailed procedures, refer to the Server Support CD or to
the operating system documentation.
To install a SATA hard drive:
1. Install the SATA hard drive by following the steps described in
the "To install a SCSI hard drive" section.
CAUTION: Route the SATA drive cables neatly. If necessary, secure
them using the pre-installed cable clips located on the chassis
base. The cables should be routed in a position where they will not
be pinched or crimped by the top cover, nor should they hamper
proper airflow inside the chassis.
2. Route the SATA drive cables:
a. Route the SATA and power cables through the cable
management opening of the chassis' partition wall.
b. Connect the SATA and power cables to their corresponding
connectors on the rear of the new drive.
c. Check that all cables are clear of the hard drive carrier and
are properly routed to their corresponding connectors, then
tighten the screw that secures the hard drive assembly to the
chassis.
3. Perform the post-installation procedures described earlier.
