Do not block the airflow from the fans. Complete the following steps to install a non-hot-swap hard disk drive: Drive bay 2 Drive bay 1 1. Review the safety information beginning on page v, and "Installation guidelines" on page 7. 2. Turn off the server and all attached peripheral devices. Disconnect all power cords; then, disconnect all external signal cables from the server. 3. Remove the server cover (see "Removing the cover and bezel" on page 8). 4.

Press on the bezel retention tabs and pull the bezel directly away from the server. Notes: a. If you have only one non-hot-swap hard disk drive, install it in the right-hand bay (bay 2) with a jumper installed in the cable-selection-enabled position of the jumper block on the rear of the drive. b. If you have two drives and you want the server to determine the master drive and subordinate drive automatically, install jumpers in the cable-selection-enabled position of the jumper block on both drives. c. If you want to assign master and subordinate drives manually, install a jumper in the master position for the drive in bay 2 and install a jumper in the subordinate position for the drive in bay 1. 5. Install the hard disk drive in the drive bay: a. Attach the rails to the sides of the drive using 2 screws for each rail. b. Slide the drive into the bay until the rail latches snap into place. c. Connect the signal and power cables to the rear of the drive. Keep the cables clear of the airflow path of the fan behind the drive bays. 6. If you have other options to install, install them now.
