Important Warnings and Cautions
WARNING!
To avoid the risk of serious injury or damage
to the computer, unplug the power cord from the electrical
outlet before installing the hard drive.
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot
surfaces, allow the internal system to cool before touching
it.
CAUTION:
Static electricity can damage the electronic
components of the computer or optional equipment. Before
installing the hard drive, ensure that you are static-free by
briefly touching a grounded metal object. Refer to the
documentation that came with the computer for more
information on preventing electrostatic damage.
CAUTION:
Prior to replacing an existing hard drive, be
sure to back up your data. If the computer supports only
one hard drive, you must use a second system with third-
party software to copy the data to the new hard drive.
CAUTION:
The data cable end is keyed to ensure proper
alignment. To avoid damage to the cable header pins,
check the header/connector alignment and push gently
when connecting the data cable header to the SATA
connector on the drive and system board.
Installing the Hard Drive
NOTE:
For specific information relating to your HP xw
Series Workstation, refer to www.hp.com/go/bizsupport.
1.
Turn off the computer and any external devices.
2.
Disconnect the AC power cord and any external devices.
3.
Remove the side access panel from the computer.
4.
Install the hard drive into the drive bay.
5.
Identify the cable that best fits your SATA or SAS hard drive
by referring to the Cable Identification Table.

adapter. The cable adapter is provided with the kit and is
not required when installing SATA hard drives.

Connect the power cable
1
and data cable
2
to the hard
drive.
8.

board or controller card.
CAUTION:
To avoid any hard drive performance
problems, connect the primary hard drive to the connector
on the system board labeled SATA 0 or SAS 0, depending
on hard drive type. Connect a second hard drive to the
SATA 1 or SAS 1 connector. Connect a third hard drive to
the SATA 2 or SAS 2 connector and a fourth hard drive to
the SATA 3 or SAS 4 connector.

Configuring the Computer
System configuration is the process of specifying the devices and
programs that make up a computer system. When you add or
remove accessories, the computer must be configured to
recognize these changes.
Turn on the computer and read the messages displayed during
startup.
If the system recognizes the new drive, information about
the drive displays on the screen, and you are prompted to
press F1 to save and continue.
If you are not prompted to press F1, there is a problem with
the installation of the drive, and you need to diagnose the
problem. Start by reviewing the steps in this guide.
