Installing an additional hard disk in the internal disk drive bracket

You can add a secondary internal hard disk in the top bay of the server’s internal disk drive bracket (shown in the external view of the server in the section “Your Server at a Glance” in Chapter 1).

Follow these steps to install an additional internal hard disk.

1Open the server by following the instructions in the section “Opening the Server Safely” earlier in this chapter.

Remember to wear a grounded wriststrap while installing an internal hard disk.

2Touch the metal part of the power supply case inside the server to discharge static electricity.

Always do this before you touch any parts or install components inside the server.
