Chapter 3 Installing and Configuring
Refer to the documentation provided with the hard drive.
6. Install the hard disk drive as described below:
a. Place the hard disk drive into the tray and use the screws provided to secure it to the tray from the bottom.
b. Insert the hard disk drive assembly into the fourth shelf. See Figure 3-9.
The tabs should snap into place when the drive is pushed all the way into the fourth shelf.
7. Connect the data cable to the hard drive, as described below:
o If mounting a third IDE hard drive, connect the secondary (IDE-2) cable to the hard drive.
o If mounting a third SCSI hard drive, connect the SCSI cable to the drive and ensure all SCSI drives are
connected to the SCSI cable.
o There are five connectors on the standard SCSI cable; with four of the connectors intended for the three
hard disk drives and one optional backup tape drive. The standard SCSI cable has a terminator at the end
of the cable.
8. Connect the power cable to the rear of the hard disk drive.
9. Replace the upper bezel and left side cover.
10. Replace the external cables, and power cord, and then restore power to the server.
The BIOS and SCSISelect utilities automatically detect the new hard drives (IDE or SCSI), but you should
check the BIOS and SCSISelect settings and make changes as necessary.
NOTE If the hard disk drive (HDD) you are planning to install
already has a mounting tray attached, you must remove it from
the tray.
