Chapter 4 Installing Mass Storage Devices 6. Slots P2 through P10 On-board SCSI consists of two channels, A and B. Channel A controls the HP NetServer's internal hard disk drives. Channel B handles the HP NetServer's external SCSI port. On each SCSI channel, the server scans for a boot device starting at device ID 0 and works up from there. Installing a Hot-Swap Hard Disk Drive CAUTION Protect the drive from static electricity by leaving it in its anti-static bag until you are ready to install it. Before handling the drive, touch any unpainted metal surface to discharge static electricity. When you remove the drive from the anti-static bag, handle it only by the frame . Do not touch the electrical components. Place the drive on the anti-static bag whenever you set it down. Hard disk drives are very susceptible to mechanical shock and can be damaged by a drop as short as one-quarter of an inch. Take care when unpacking and handling the drive. If the drop would crack an egg, it will damage the drive. 1. If there is a filler plug in the hot-swap mass storage location, remove the filler as follows: a. Press in the locking latch and insert your fingers. b. Using your fingers, pull the filler plug straight out. See Figure 4-1. 28
