Drives
There are several types of drives and similar devices that can be installed in
the server.
Preparing to replace or add a drive
One diskette drive and at least one 1-inch high, 3.5-inch hot-plug hard drive
are included with the server. You can add an optional slimline CD drive and
as many as two additional hot-plug drives for a total of three hot-plug drives.
As you prepare to install drives, keep the following in mind:
If you remove a drive, place it in an antistatic bag or container.
Before you install a drive, see the drive documentation for information
on configuring the drive, setting any jumpers on the drive, and attaching
cables to the drive.
If you are installing a drive that uses an add-in controller card, install
the card before you install the drive.
You may need to configure the drives you install using the BIOS Setup
utility or the SCSISelect utility. Press F2 at start up to open the BIOS Setup
utility or press C
TRL+A to enter the SCSISelect utility.
