When adding hard drives to the server, observe the following general guidelines: • The system automatically sets all device numbers. • If only one hard drive is used, install it in the bay with the lowest device number. • Hard drives must be SFF types. • Drives should be the same capacity to provide the greatest storage space efficiency when drives are grouped together into the same drive array. • The server supports up to eight SAS or SATA hot-plug hard drives. Installing a hot-plug hard drive CAUTION: To prevent improper cooling and thermal damage, do not operate the server unless all bays are populated with either a component or a blank. 1. Prepare the hard drive. 2. Install the hard drive into the server. Be sure that the hard drive seats firmly into the connector in the back of the drive cage. Hardware options installation 42
