Installing a 3.5-inch drive in a 5.25-inch drive
bay
Additional 3.5-inch hard drives can also be installed in the server in the empty
5.25-inch drive bays. A 5.25-inch filler tray, three of which came installed in
your server, is required for this type if installation.
To install a 3.5-inch drive in a 5.25-inch drive bay:
1 Turn off the system and disconnect the power cord, modem cord (if
installed), and all external peripheral devices.
2 Observe all safety and static electricity precautions. (See “Preventing static
electricity discharge” on page 22.)
3 Remove the bezel. (See “Removing the bezel” on page 25.)
4 Remove the left side cover panel. (See “Removing the side cover panel”
on page 26.)
5 Locate an available 5.25-inch drive bay.
6 Grip the mounting rails firmly with thumb and index finger and pull
the filler tray carefully straight out of the drive bay.
7 Leave the mounting rails on the filler tray.
