v The server 2.5-inch models support eight 2.5-inch hot-swap hard disk drives installed on Ultra-Slim hard disk drive trays for 2.5-inch drives. For a list of supported 2.5-inch hard disk drives, see http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/ serverproven/compat/us/. v All hot-swap drives in the server should have the same throughput speed rating. Mixing hard disk drives with different speed ratings will cause all drives to operate at the lower throughput speed. v The ID that is assigned to each bay is printed on the front of the server. The following illustrations show how to install a hot-swap hard disk drive. 3.5-inch drives Filler panel Hard disk drive Tray handle 2.5-inch drives To install a drive in a hot-swap bay, complete the following steps.
