2.5-inch drives Important: Install only SAS 2.5-inch hard disk drives in this server. To install a drive in a hot-swap bay, complete the following steps. Attention: To maintain proper system cooling, do not operate the server for more than 10 minutes without either a drive or a filler panel installed in each bay. 1. Read the safety information beginning on page v and "Installation guidelines" on page 23. 2. Remove the filler panel from one of the empty hot-swap bays. v 3.5-inch models: Insert your finger into the depression at the left side of the filler panel and pull it away from the server. v 2.5-inch models: Grasp both sides of the front of the filler panel and pull it away from the server. 3. Install the hard disk drive in the hot-swap bay: a. Make sure that the tray handle is open (that is, perpendicular to the drive). b. Align the drive assembly with the guide rails in the bay. c. Gently push the drive assembly into the bay until the drive stops. d. Push the tray handle to the closed (locked) position. e. Check the hard disk drive status LED to verify that the hard disk drive is operating properly. If the amber hard disk drive status LED for a drive is lit continuously, that drive is faulty and must be replaced. If the green hard disk drive activity LED is flashing, the drive is being accessed. Note: You might have to reconfigure the disk arrays after installing hard disk drives. See the ServeRAID documentation on the IBM ServeRAID Support CD for information about ServeRAID controllers. If you have other devices to install or remove, do so now. Otherwise, go to "Completing the installation" on page 61. Chapter 2. Installing optional devices 39
