Installing a hot-swap hard disk drive The following notes describe the types of hard disk drives that your server supports and other information that you must consider when installing a hard disk drive: v The server supports up to six 26 mm (1-inch), 3.5-inch, hot-swap hard disk drives in the hot-swap bays. v Each hot-swap drive is in a tray, which has a green activity LED and an amber status LED in the upper-right corner. The activity LED flashes when the drive is active; the status LED is lit if the drive has an error. Each hot-swap drive has a single-connector-attached (SCA) connector, which connects directly into the hot-swap SCSI hard disk drive backplane. The backplane controls the SCSI IDs for the hot-swap drives. v Before you install a hot-swap hard disk drive, take the following actions: - Inspect the drive tray for any signs of damage. - Make sure that the drive is installed in the tray correctly. - If your server has an optional RAID adapter installed, see the documentation that comes with the adapter for information about installing a hard disk drive. Complete the following steps to install a hard disk drive: 1. Review the safety information beginning on page v, and "Installation guidelines" on page 7. Chapter 2. Installing options 13
