v Diskette drives, tape drives, CD drives, CD-RW drives, and DVD/CD-RW combo drives are examples of removable-media drives. You can install removable-media drives in bays 1, 2, and 3 only. v To install a 3.5-in. drive in a 5.25-in. bay, you must use the 5.25-in. conversion kit. v Only a 3.5-in. device can be installed in bay 3. v The server supports only one diskette drive. For additional information about installing a diskette drive, see the Problem Determination and Service Guide on the IBM xSeries Documentation CD. v The electromagnetic interference (EMI) integrity and cooling of the server are protected by having all bays and PCI, PCI Express, and PCI-X slots covered or occupied. When you install a drive or PCI, PCI Express, or PCI-X adapter, save the EMC shield and filler panel from the bay or the PCI, PCI Express, or PCI-X adapter slot cover in the event that you later remove the option. v For a complete list of supported options for the server, see http://www.ibm.com/ servers/eserver/serverproven/compat/us/.
