a. Remove the screws on either side of the cover plate that secure the plate
to the target bay.
b. Remove the cover plate from the server front panel. (Save the cover plate
for future use.)
3. Using the instructions that come with the drive, together with these instructions,
check that any switches or jumpers on the drive are set correctly. Change the
settings if necessary. For information about termination requirements, see
“Termination Requirements” on page 59.
4. Position the drive with the connectors facing the rear of the server.
5. Slide the drive into the bay until it stops.
6. Reinstall and tighten the screws that you removed in step 2.
7. Connect the drive to the available connector on the SCSI cable or the IDE
