The following illustration shows how to install an IDE drive in the blade server. IDE drive Tray Riser card IDE connector 2 (J62) IDE connector 1 (J13) Notes: 1. If you are upgrading the IDE drive and a drive tray is currently installed, complete steps 1-4 and then go to step 9 in the following installation procedure. 2. Do not install an IDE drive in IDE connector 2 if you intend to also install an optional I/O expansion card. The I/O expansion card occupies the same area as the second IDE drive. Complete the following steps to install a 2.5-inch IDE drive: 1. Read the safety information beginning on page vii and "Installation guidelines" on page 19. 2. Shut down the operating system, turn off the blade server, and remove the blade server from the BladeCenter unit (see "Removing the blade server from the BladeCenter unit" on page 20 for instructions). 3. Carefully lay the blade server on a flat, static-protective surface. 4. Open the blade server cover (see "Opening the blade server cover" on page 22 for instructions). 5. Insert the riser card from the option kit into an IDE connector on the blade server system board. Important: IDE drives must be installed in the following order: IDE connector 1 (J13) first, then IDE connector 2 (J62). 6. Place the IDE drive tray from the option kit over the riser card as shown in the illustration, aligning the tray with the screw holes on the system board. The screw holes have screws in them. 7. Remove the tray temporarily; then, remove the existing two rear-board mounting screws on the system board and replace the tray. Secure the tray to the system board with the screws from the kit. 24 BladeCenter HS20 Type 8832: Installation and User's Guide
