Installing or Removing a Floppy, CD- ROM, or DVD-ROM Drive

Before removing or replacing the drive, you must first take the server out of service, turn off all peripheral devices connected to the system, turn off the system by pressing the power button, and unplug the AC power cord from the system or wall outlet or disconnect the DC mains.
