2-6 Checking the Drive Bay Setup
Next, you should check to make sure the peripheral drives and the SCSI
drives and SCSI backplane have been properly installed and all connections
have been made.
1. Accessing the drive bays
All drives are accessable from the front of the server. For servicing the
DVD-ROM and floppy drives, you will need to remove the top chassis cover.
The SCSI disk drives can be installed and removed from the front of the
chassis without removing the top chassis cover.
2. DVD-ROM and floppy disk drives
A slim DVD-ROM and floppy drive should be preinstalled in your server.
Refer to Chapter 6 if you need to reinstall a DVD-ROM and/or floppy disk
drive to the system.
3. Check the SCSI disk drives
Depending upon your system's configuration, your system may have one
or more drives already installed. If you need to install SCSI drives, please
refer to Chapter 6.
4. Check the airflow
Airflow is provided by five sets of 4-cm fans (each set of fans consists of
two fans that are mounted back to back). The system component layout
was carefully designed to direct sufficient cooling airflow to the compo-
nents that generate the most heat. Note that all power and data cables
have been routed in such a way that they do not block the airflow gener-
ated by the fans.
5. Supplying power to the system
The last thing you must do is to provide input power to the system. Plug
the power cord(s) from the power supply module(s) into a high-quality
power strip that offers protection from electrical noise and power surges.
It is recommended that you use an uninterruptible power supply (UPS)
source.
