Replacing the optional boot drive
An optional IDE hard drive can be shipped with the server. This drive is
mounted at the bottom of the drive stack accessible from the front of the
chassis.
To replace the optional boot drive:
1 Turn off the system and disconnect the power cord and all other external
peripheral devices.
2 Open the case. (See “Opening the case” on page 23 and “Preventing static
electricity discharge” on page 22.)
3 Locate the 3.5-inch hard drive at the bottom of the drive stack.
4 Remove the power and data cables from the hard drive.
5 Grip the mounting rails firmly with thumb and index finger and pull
the drive carefully straight out of the drive stack.
6 Remove the mounting rails from the hard drive.
7 Place the old drive in an antistatic bag or container, then place the new
hard drive on a static-free surface with the top up and the connectors
facing you.
