Installing a drive Depending on the server model, a CD-ROM, CD-RW, DVD/CD-RW combo, or multiburner drive might be installed in the server. The following illustration shows the drive bays. Bay 1 Bay 2 Bay 3 Bay 4 Bay 5 Bay 6 Bay 7 The following notes describe the types of drives that the server supports and other information that you must consider when you install a hard disk drive: v Make sure that you have all the cables and other equipment specified that are in the documentation that comes with the drive. v Select the bay in which you want to install the drive. v Check the instructions that come with the drive to see whether you have to set any switches or jumpers on the drive. If you are installing a SAS or SATA device, be sure to set the SAS or SATA ID for that device. v Optional external USB diskette drives, tape drives, CD drives, CD-RW drives, DVD/CD-RW combo, and multiburner drives are examples of removable-media drives. You can install removable-media drives in bays 1, 2, and 3 only. v To install a 3.5 in. drive in a 5.25 in. bay, you must use the 5.25 in. conversion kit. v The electromagnetic interference (EMI) integrity and cooling of the server are protected by having all bays, and PCI and PCI Express slots covered or occupied. When you install a drive, PCI, or PCI Express adapter, save the EMC shield from the bay, or the PCI or PCI Express adapter slot cover in the event that you later remove the device. v For a complete list of supported optional devices for the server, see http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/serverproven/compat/us/. 16 System x3200 Type 4362 and 4363: Installation Guide
