Installing a SATA tape drive in a 2.5-inch model server To install a SATA tape drive in a 2.5-inch model server, complete the following steps: 1. Read the safety information that begins on page v and "Installation guidelines" on page 23. 2. If you installed the space filler from the tape drive option onto the tape drive assembly, remove it now. 3. Remove the server cover. 4. Remove the riser-card assembly (see "Removing the riser-card assembly" on page 26). 5. Remove the air baffle (see "Removing the air baffle" on page 29). 6. Remove the fan bracket assembly (see "Removing the fan-bracket assembly" on page 60). 7. Remove the filler panel from the tape drive bay. 8. From the inside of the server drive cage, thread the tape-drive connector end of the cables through the rear of the tape drive bay and out the front of the server. 9. Connect the cable to the back of the tape drive and route the cable through the cable clamp 10. Push the tape drive assembly into the tape drive bay, gently pulling the cables farther into the server as you do so, until the tape drive assembly stops. 11. Push the tray handle to the closed (locked) position. 12. Connect the tape drive signal cable connector and power cable connector to the system board (see "System-board internal cable connectors" on page 19 for the location of the connectors). The following illustration shows the routing for the SATA tape drive signal cable. Important: Make sure to route the cables so that you do not obstruct access to the fan connectors. Chapter 2.
