Server Component Installations and Upgrades

3.1

Before You Begin

Before working with your server product, pay close attention to the safety instructions

provided in this manual. See

Appendix A, “Safety Information”

.

Warning:

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) and ESD protection: ESD can damage disk drives,

boards, and other parts. We recommend that you perform all procedures in this chapter

only at an ESD workstation. If one is not available, provide some ESD protection by

wearing an antistatic wrist strap attached to chassis ground (any unpainted metal

surface) on your server when handling parts.

3.1.1

Tools and Supplies Needed

• #1 and #2 Phillips (cross-point) screwdrivers (or interchangeable tip screwdriver

with #1 and #2 Phillips bits)

• Personal grounding device such as an anti-static wrist strap and a grounded

conductive pad

3.1.2

System References

All references to left, right, front, top, and bottom assume that you are facing the front

of the server, as it would be positioned for normal operation.

3.2

General Installation Procedures

The following sections present general installation and removal procedures that are

required before removing or installing internal components that are not hot-swappable.

3.2.1

Removing the Chassis Cover

The NSC2U Server must be operated with the top cover in place to ensure proper

cooling. You will need to remove the top cover to add or replace components inside of

the server that are not hot-swappable from the front or rear panels.

Caution:

5V standby power is present inside the chassis whenever the PSU(s) are connected to a

source of power.

Before removing the top cover, power down the server system and unplug all peripheral

devices and the power cable.

Note:

A non-skid surface or a stop behind the server may be needed to prevent the server

from sliding on your work surface.

1. Observe the safety and ESD precautions in Chapter

Appendix A, “Safety

Information”

.

2. Turn off all peripheral devices connected to the server. Turn off the server.
