Secure the connector with the two screws you removed in step 3b. e. Connect the power-cable drop to the connector. The connectors are keyed and can be inserted only one way. f. Repeat steps 3b through 3e for the second SATA cable that comes with the ServeRAID-7t S-ATA adapter. g. Press in on the drive-cage release tab and rotate the drive cage partially back into the server. Press the drive-cage release latch and rotate the drive cage the rest of the way back into the server, allowing the release latch to spring back into position. h. Route the SATA cables through the upper slot in the front adapter-support-bracket assembly; then, connect the other end of the SATA cables to the ServeRAID-7t S-ATA adapter. 4. Complete the installation of the optional SATA adapter. Installing a security rope clip To help prevent hardware theft, you can add a security rope clip and cable to the server. After you add the security cable, make sure that it does not interfere with other cables that are connected to the server. Complete the following steps to install a rope clip: 1. Turn off the server and all attached devices. Disconnect all external cables and power cords; then, remove the side cover. See "Removing the side cover" on page 13. 2.
