Installing drives

Your server’s basic configuration includes one CD or DVD drive and one
3.5-inch diskette drive. Your server also has two additional 5.25-inch drive bays.

Your server can have up to four SCSI hard drives in the hot-swap bay behind
the front access door.

As you prepare to install drives, remember:

■

Do not use the top 5.25-inch drive bay for drives which have electronic
components exposed on the top. Drive mounting rails at the top of the
bay may damage any exposed electronic components.

■

Before you install a drive, see the drive’s documentation for information
on configuring the drive, setting drive jumpers, and attaching cables.

■

IDE hard drives can be configured as single, master, slave, or cable-select.
IDE CD or DVD drives can be configured as master, slave, or cable-select.
