Removing the blade server bezel assembly To install certain options, you must first remove the blade server bezel assembly. The following illustration shows how to remove the bezel assembly from the blade server. Bezel-assembly release Bezel-assembly release Control panel connector Control-panel cable Complete the following steps to remove the blade server bezel assembly: 1. Read the safety information beginning on page vii and "Installation guidelines" on page 19. 2. Open the blade server cover (see "Opening the blade server cover" on page 22 for instructions). 3. Press the bezel-assembly release and pull the bezel assembly away from the blade server approximately 1.2 cm (0.5 inch). 4. Disconnect the control-panel cable from the control-panel connector. 5. Pull the bezel assembly away from the blade server. 6. Store the bezel assembly in a safe place. Installing an IDE drive option Your blade server has two connectors on the system board for installing an optional 2.5-inch HS20 IDE Hard Disk Drive or BladeCenter Flash Disk Drive. Note: In this document, both types of drives are referred to as IDE drives. Each IDE connector is on a separate bus. Depending on your blade server, at least one IDE hard disk drive might already be installed. If your blade server is equipped with one IDE hard disk drive, you can install an additional IDE hard disk drive. These two IDE hard disk drives can be used to implement and manage redundant array of independent disks (RAID) level-1 under both the Linux and Microsoft Windows 2000 operating systems. See "Configuring an IDE RAID" on page 52 for information about IDE RAID configuration. Attention: To maintain proper system cooling, do not operate the system unit without either a blade server, expansion unit, or filler blade installed in each blade bay for more than 1 minute for the BladeCenter unit and 20 minutes for the BladeCenter T unit.

Installing
an
IDE
drive
option
Your
blade
server
has
two
connectors
on
the
system
board
for
installing
an
optional
2.5-inch
HS20
IDE
Hard
Disk
Drive
or
BladeCenter
Flash
Disk
Drive.
Note:
In
this
document,
both
types
of
drives
are
referred
to
as
IDE
drives.
Each
IDE
connector
is
on
a
separate
bus.
Depending
on
your
blade
server,
at
least
one
IDE
hard
disk
drive
might
already
be
installed.
If
your
blade
server
is
equipped
with
one
IDE
hard
disk
drive,
you
can
install
an
additional
IDE
hard
disk
drive.
These
two
IDE
hard
disk
drives
can
be
used
to
implement

array
of
independent
disks
(RAID)
level-1

Windows
2000
operating
systems.
See
“Configuring
an
IDE
RAID”
on
page
52
for
information
about
IDE
RAID
configuration.
Attention:
To
maintain
proper
system
cooling,
do
not
operate
the
system
unit
without
either
a
blade
server,
expansion
unit,
or
filler
blade
installed
in
each
blade
bay
for
more
than
1
minute
for
the
BladeCenter
unit
and
20
minutes
for
the
BladeCenter
T
unit.
