c. Locate the drive-release tab on the diskette drive. d. Press the tab against the drive and hold it there; slide the drive into the bay until it clicks into place. 4. If you want to install or remove any other options, do so now. Otherwise, go to "Completing the installation" on page 77. Installing or removing drives in bays 1 through 5 (hard disk drives): This section gives the procedure for installing a hard disk drive. If you want to remove a drive, reverse the following steps. Note To minimize the possibility of damage to the hard disk drives when you are installing a hard disk drive in a rack model, install the rack model in the rack before installing the hard disk drives. Attention: To avoid damage to a hard disk drive, do not remove the drive from the hot-swap bay until it has had time to spin down (approximately 30 seconds). Handle the drive gently. Before you begin Read "Safety information" on page 176. Read "Termination requirements" on page 67 The Netfinity 5000 contains hardware that lets you replace a hard disk drive without turning off the Netfinity 5000. These drives are known as hot-swappable or hot-swap drives. Each hot-swap drive that you plan to install must have a hot-swap-drive tray attached. The drive must have a single connector attachment (SCA) connector. Hot-swap drives come with the hot-swap-drive tray attached. Notes 1. The Netfinity 5000 EMI integrity and cooling are both protected by having the hot-swap bays 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. 2. The hot-swap bays connect to a SCSI backplane. This backplane is the printed circuit board behind the hot-swap bays. 72 Netfinity Server HMM
