Slim filler Filler panel Drive tray handle (in open position) Note: You do not have to turn off the server to install hot-swap drives in these bays. To install a drive in a hot-swap bay: 1. Review the information in "Before you begin" on page 60. 2. Remove the filler panel from one of the empty hot-swap bays by inserting your finger into the depression at the left side of the filler panel and pulling it away from the server. Attention: To maintain proper system cooling, do not operate the server for more than 10 minutes without either a drive or a filler panel installed for each bay. 3. Install the hard disk drive in the hot-swap bay: a. If there is a small gap above or below the drive, separate the slim filler from the filler panel, and insert it in the gap. Note: A drive placement guide is located on the inside edge of the bezel. The drive placement guide indicates the placement for slim-high and halfhigh drives. The guide also shows the SCSI ID assigned to the drive. b. Ensure the tray handle is open (that is, perpendicular to the drive). c. Align the drive assembly with the guide rails in the bay. d. Gently push the drive assembly into the bay until the drive stops. e. Push the tray handle to the closed (locked) position. f. Check the hard disk drive status indicators to verify that the hard disk drive is operating properly. If the amber hard-disk status light for a drive is lit continuously, that individual drive is faulty and needs to be replaced. If the green hard-disk activity light is flashing, the drive is being accessed. Note: Because the server has a RAID controller installed, you must configure the disk arrays after installing hard disk drives. Refer to "Chapter . Installing and configuring ServeRAID controllers," on page 139 for information. Installing options 69
