Installing System Components

If no SAS controller card is present, attach SATA interface cables to
the hard drives and the SATA connectors on the system board.
Connect hard drive 0 to the SATA_0 connector and hard drive 1 to the
SATA_1 connector. See Figure 6-2 for the location of the SATA
connectors.

If a SAS controller card is present, attach the HDD0 cable from the
SAS controller to hard drive 0 and attach the HDD1 cable to hard
drive 1. See the controller card documentation for further
information.

Install the CD drive if you are removing hard drive 0. See "Installing the
Optical Drive" on page 61.

Installing a SAS Controller Card

See "Installing an Expansion Card" on page 75 for general instructions about
installing the controller card. See the controller card documentation for
specific information on installing and configuring the card.

NOTICE:

If your SAS controller has an external storage connector, you must install

the optional PCI fan assembly in your system to maintain the proper cooling
environment. Failure to install the fan assembly could result in the system
overheating and shutting down unexpectedly. See "Installing the PCI Fan Assembly"
on page 72 for instructions on in
stalling the PCI fan assembly.
