Attention: You must install expansion-slot covers on all empty slots. This maintains the electromagnetic emissions characteristics of the system and ensures proper cooling of system components. 6. Refer to the documentation that comes with the adapter for any cabling instructions. It might be easier for you to route any cables before you install the adapter. 7. Remove the adapter from the static-protective package. Attention: Avoid touching the components and gold-edge connectors on the adapter. If you need to put down the adapter, place the adapter, component-side up, on a flat, static-protective surface. 8. Install the adapter: a. Carefully grasp the adapter by its top edge or upper corners, and align it with the expansion slot on the processor board. b. Press the adapter firmly into the expansion slot. Attention: When you install an adapter in the server, be sure that it is completely and correctly seated in the processor-board connector. Incomplete insertion might cause damage to the processor board or the adapter. c. Lower the tab over the top corner of the adapter. Rotate the adapter retention latch clockwise until it snaps into place. d. Lower the rear retainer clip over the top of the adapter until it snaps into place. 9. Connect any needed cables to the adapter. 10. Enable the PCI slot from the operating system. (Refer to the documentation that comes with the operating system for information about enabling a hot-plug PCI slot.) Make sure that the power light for the hot-plug PCI slot is on. 11. If you have other options to install or remove, do so now; otherwise, go to"Completing the installation" on page 79. Installing internal drives If you add different types of drives, the system can read multiple types of media and store more data. Several types of drives are available, such as: • Diskette • Hard disk • CD-ROM • Tape Internal drives are installed in bays. Your server comes with one 3.5-inch, 1.44 MB diskette drive and one IDE CD-ROM drive. 66 Hardware Maintenance Manual: Netfinity 7600 - Type 8665 Models 1RY, 2RY
