6. If the replacement hard-disk drive has no carrier, remove the hard-disk drive that you removed from its carrier:

a. Remove the four screws that secure the drive to the carrier (see

Figure 13

).

b. Remove the hard-disk drive from the carrier.

2 Hard-disk drive

3 Hard-disk drive carrier

To install a replacement hard-disk drive, perform the following steps:

1. Insert the replacement hard-disk drive into the carrier and install four screws to secure the hard-disk drive.

2. Open the handle on the carrier and install the replacement hard-disk drive and carrier into its slot. Close the handle until it engages the

front panel, locking the hard-disk drive in place.

3. Reinstall the hard-disk drive lock you removed in step 3 of the previous procedure.

4. If you removed the front bezel in step 2 of the previous procedure, reinstall it now.

NOTICE: When replacing the optional front bezel, ensure that the bezel is oriented so that its status indicators are positioned just
below the Dell nameplate in the center of the bezel.

SCSI Backplane Boards

The SCSI backplane board has connectors on the front that connect to the four hard-disk drives and to one SCSI backplane daughter card
(see

Figure 14

). On the back side are connectors that connect to the SCSI interface cables that attach to either one of the system board SCSI

connectors or to an expansion card connector. One SCSI connector attaches to a SCSI device installed in the externally-accessible
peripherals bay, if installed. A DC power connector accepts a power cord from the PSDB.
