v Your server comes with a preinstalled 3.5-inch, 1.44 MB diskette drive in bay D and a preinstalled IDE CD-ROM drive in bay C. v The Netfinity 5100 server supports only one diskette drive. v The diskette drive uses 1 MB and 2 MB diskettes. For optimum use, format 1 MB diskettes to 720 KB and format 2 MB diskettes to 1.44 MB. v Bays A and B come without a device installed. These bays are for 5.25-inch, half-high, removable-media drives, such as tape backup drives. You can combine bays A and B into a single full-high bay. v If you are installing a device with a 50-pin connector in one of the empty non-hot-swap bays (bays A-B), you need a 68-pin to 50-pin converter. To order the converter, contact your IBM reseller or IBM marketing representative. Note: The server's EMI integrity and cooling are both protected by having bays A and B covered or occupied. When you install a drive, save the filler panel from the bay, in case you later remove the drive and do not replace it with another. Preinstallation steps (all bays) Before you install drives in your server, verify that you have all the cables and any other equipment specified in the documentation that comes with the internal drive. You might also need to perform certain preinstallation activities. Some of the steps are required only during the initial installation of an option. 1. Read "Safety information" on page 152, "Handling static sensitive devices" on page 47, and the documentation that comes with your drive. 2. Choose the bay in which you want to install the drive. 3. Check the instructions that come with the drive to see if you need to set any switches or jumpers on the drive. 4. To install the drive, go to "Installing a hot-swap drive" or to "Installing a non-hot-swap drive" on page 60, as appropriate.

v
Your
server
comes
with
a
preinstalled
3.5-inch,
1.44
MB
diskette
drive
in
bay
D
and
a
preinstalled
IDE
CD-ROM
drive
in
bay
C.
v
The
Netfinity
5100
server
supports
only
one
diskette
drive.
v
The
diskette
drive
uses
1
MB
and
2
MB
diskettes.
For
optimum
use,
format
1
MB
diskettes
to
720
KB
and
format
2
MB
diskettes
to
1.44
MB.
v
Bays
A
and
B
come
without
a
device
installed.
These
bays
are
for
5.25-inch,
half-high,
removable-media
drives,
such
as
tape
backup
drives.
You
can
combine
bays
A
and
B
into
a
single
full-high
bay.
v
If
you
are
installing
a
device
with
a
50-pin
connector
in
one
of
the
empty
non-hot-swap
bays
(bays
A–B),
you
need
a
68-pin
to
50-pin
converter.
To
order
the
converter,
contact
your
IBM
reseller
or
IBM
marketing
representative.
Note:
The
server’s
EMI
integrity
and
cooling
are
both
protected
by
having
bays
A
and
B
covered
or
occupied.
When
you
install
a
drive,
save
the
filler
panel
from
the
bay,
in
case
you
later
remove
the
drive
and
do
not
replace
it
with
another.
Preinstallation
steps
(all
bays)
Before
you
install
drives
in
your
server,
verify
that
you
have
all
the
cables
and
any
other
equipment
specified
in
the
documentation
that
comes
with
the
internal
drive.
You
might
also
need
to
perform
certain
preinstallation
activities.
Some
of
the
steps
are
required
only
during
the
initial
installation
of
an
option.
1.
Read
“Safety
information”
on
page
152,

with
your
drive.
2.
Choose
the
bay
in
which
you
want
to
install
the
drive.
3.
Check
the
instructions
that
come
with
the
drive
to
see
if
you
need
to
set
any
switches
or
jumpers
on
the
drive.
4.
To
install
the
drive,
go
to
“Installing
a
hot-swap
drive”
or
to
