Installing and removing drives
Your server’s basic configuration includes one optical drive and as many as 10 3.5-inch SATA or
SAS hot-swap hard drives. You can also add an optional diskette drive.
As you prepare to install drives, remember:
• Before you install a drive, see the drive’s documentation for information on configuring
the drive, setting drive jumpers, and attaching cables.
• You may need to configure the drives you install using the BIOS Setup utility. Press F2 at
startup to open the BIOS Setup utility.
