1. Read the information in "Preinstallation steps (all bays)" on page 57. 2. Turn off the server and peripheral devices and then remove the cover and the bezel (see "Removing the cover, door, and bezel" on page 48 for details). 3. Remove the filler panel from the bay opening by pulling the filler panel away from the server. You do not need the filler panel when you have a drive installed in the bay. 4. Touch the static-protective bag containing the drive to any unpainted metal surface on the server; then, remove the drive from the bag and place it on a static-protective surface. 5. Set any jumpers or switches on the drive according to the documentation that comes with the drive. 6. Install rails on the drive. v If you are installing a standard-size drive: a. Pull the blue slide rails off the back of the filler panel. b. Clip the rails onto the sides of the drive. v If you are installing a digital linear tape (DLT) backup drive, the slide rails and screws are included in the optional power supply backplane kit. 7. Align the rails on the drive with the guide rails in the drive bay. 8. Push the drive into the bay until it clicks into place. 9. If the drive is an IDE device: v Make sure the drive is not a hard disk drive. v Plug a connector on the IDE cable into the back of the drive. v Make sure the other end of the IDE cable is plugged into the IDE connector on the system board. v Go to step 11. 10. If the drive is a SCSI device: a. Make sure the drive is not a hard disk drive. b. Obtain a 16-bit SCSI cable to connect the device to the connector for SCSI channel B on the system board, or to an optional SCSI adapter. A suitable cable usually comes with your SCSI device. c. Connect one of the connectors on the SCSI cable to the back of the drive. d. Connect the other end of the SCSI cable to the SCSI channel B connector on the system board, or to an optional SCSI adapter, as appropriate. See "System board internal cable connectors" on page 43 for the location of the SCSI connectors. See also "SCSI ports" on page 78 for information about SCSI connections and devices. 11. Connect a power cable to the back of the drive. Power cables for non-hot-swap drives come installed in your server. The connectors are keyed and can be inserted only one way. 12. If you are installing another non-hot-swap drive, do so at this time. Otherwise, continue with the next step. 13. If you have other options to install or remove, do so now; otherwise, replace the cover (see "Installing the cover" on page 70 for details. Installing memory modules Adding memory to your server is an easy way to make programs run faster. You can increase the amount of memory in your server by installing options called memory-module kits. Each kit contains one industry-standard, dual-inline memory module (DIMM). Your server uses a noninterleaved memory configuration. Installing options 61

the
rails
on
the
drive
with
the
guide
rails
in
the
drive
bay.
8.
Push
the
drive
into

until
it
clicks
into
place.
9.
If
the
drive
is
an
IDE
device:
v
Make
sure
the
drive
is
not
a
hard
disk
drive.
v
Plug
a
connector
on
the
IDE
cable
into
the

of
the
drive.
v
Make
sure
the
other
end
of
the
IDE
cable
is
plugged
into
the
IDE
connector
on
the
system
board.
v
Go
to
step
11.
10.
If
the
drive
is
a
SCSI
device:
a.
Make
sure
the
drive
is
not
a
hard
disk
drive.
b.
Obtain
a
16-bit
SCSI
cable
to
connect
the
device
to
the
connector
for
SCSI
channel
B
on
the
system
board,
or
to
an
optional
SCSI
adapter.
A
suitable
cable
usually
comes
with
your
SCSI
device.
c.
Connect
one
of
the
connectors
on
the
SCSI
cable
to
the
back
of
the
drive.
d.
Connect
the
other
end
of
the
SCSI
cable
to
the
SCSI
channel
B
connector
on
the
system
board,
or
to
an
optional
SCSI
adapter,
as
appropriate.
See
“System
board
internal
cable
connectors”
on
page
43
for
the

now;
otherwise,
replace
the
cover
(see
“Installing
the
cover”
on

Installing
memory
modules
Adding
memory
to
your
server
is
an
easy
way
to
make
programs
run
faster.
You
can
increase
the
amount
of
memory
in
your
server
by
installing
options
called
memory-module
kits
.
Each
kit
contains
one
industry-standard,
dual-inline
memory
module
(DIMM).
Your
server
uses
a
noninterleaved
memory
configuration.
