The following notes describe the types of drives that the server supports and other
information that you must consider when installing a drive:
v Make sure that you have all the cables and other equipment that is specified in
the documentation that comes with the drive.
v Select the bay in which you want to install the drive.
v Check the instructions that come with the drive to see whether you have to set
any switches or jumpers on the drive. If you are installing a SAS or SATA device,
be sure to set the SAS or SATA ID for that device.
v Optional internal or external USB diskette drives, tape drives, DVD-ROM, and
multiburner drives are examples of removable-media drives. You can install
removable-media drives in bays 1, 2, and 3 only.
v The SATA removable-media drives that you install in bay 1 connects to the SATA
4 connector on the system board and the drive in bay 2 connects to the SATA 5
connector on the system board.
v To install a 3.5-inch drive in a 5.25-inch bay, you must use the 5.25-inch
conversion kit.
v The electromagnetic interference (EMI) integrity and cooling of the server are
protected by having all bays and PCI and PCI Express slots covered or
occupied. When you install a drive, PCI, or PCI Express adapter, save the EMC
shield and filler panel from the bay or PCI or PCI Express adapter slot cover in
the event that you later remove the device.
v See http://www.lenovo.com/thinkserver and click the Options tab for a list of
supported options.
