Installing a SATA hard disk drive in bay 4 or 5 The server comes with a Serial ATA (SATA) hard disk drive. Before you install a SATA hard disk drive, read the following information: v Read the documentation that comes with the drive for cabling instructions. v Route the cable before you install the drive. Do not block the airflow from the fans. v You can install two SATA hard disk drives in the server. Note: Each Serial ATA drive comes with a cable. If you install an additional Serial ATA drive, you will need an additional cable. If you install the optional ServeRAID-7t S-ATA controller, all SATA drives must be connected to the ServeRAID-7t S-ATA controller instead of the system board. The controller comes with two cables. See the optional ServeRAID-7t S-ATA controller documentation for cabling instructions. You can install the optional ServeRAID-7t S-ATA controller in slot 3 or slot 4. To install a SATA hard disk drive, complete the following steps: 1. Read the safety information that begins on page v and the "Installation guidelines" on page 16. 2. Turn off the server and peripheral devices and disconnect all external cables and power cords. 3. Remove the side cover (see "Removing the side cover" on page 18). Chapter 2. Installing options 27
