Installing Mass Storage Devices
Introduction
The HP Netserver LP 2000r comes standard with an IDE CD-ROM and a
slim-line flexible disk drive, and can accommodate up to six Hot Swap SCSI hard
drives. A SCSI tape backup drive may be connected as an option to the external
SCSI connector at the rear.
Tools Required
No tools are required to install a SCSI drive in the Netserver. If the SCSI drive is
not pre-mounted in its tray, you will need the following tools for this task:
Phillips size 1 screwdriver
Check the documentation that came with the drive for additional tool
requirements
Mass Storage Guidelines
General Guidelines
o
Use care when unpacking and handling the SCSI disk drives. The hard
disk drives are very susceptible to mechanical shock and can be easily
damaged by a drop as short as one-quarter of an inch.
o
Do not stack drives.
o
The Netserver may have up to 6 Hot Swap SCSI hard disk drives (HDD).
A flexible disk drive and CD-ROM drive are standard on all models of
the HP Netserver LP 2000r. See Figure 3-1.
o
If a backup tape drive is used, it must be connected externally using the
external 68-pin SCSI connector at the rear of the Netserver.
IDE Devices
o
The embedded IDE controller is an Enhanced-IDE dual channel
controller and provides two connectors (IDE-1 and IDE-2) for IDE
devices. Refer to "System Board Layout" in Appendix A,
"Specifications."
o
The IDE CD-ROM has only one connector on the cable from the primary
channel (IDE-1) connector.
o
A secondary IDE connector (IDE-2) is available on the system board, but
is not used.
