In the base units two 5.25-inch bays for accessible drives can be used to install an HDD extension box.

Two variants of the HDD extension box are available:

●HDD extension box for 3.5-inch HDD modules (Multibay 2):

Multibay 2 contains one bay for a LSP or LSD, one bay for a DVD drive, and two bays for 3.5-inch HDD modules.

●HDD extension box for 2.5-inch HDD modules:

This HDD extension box contains eight bays for 2.5-inch HDD modules.

The HDD extension box is supplied without EasyClick rails. You need 4 M3 screws. Before installing a new HDD extension box you must therefore remove the EasyClick rails from one dummy cover and mount two EasyClick rails on the HDD extension box.

ÊOpen the server and remove the the front cover or the rack front cover as described in the chapter "Preparation" on page 27.

ÊRemove the dummy covers from the required 5.25-inch bays (see section "Equipping of the bays" on page 54 and section "Removing the dummy cover" on page 56).

ÊDetach the EasyClick rails from a dummy cover by removing the four screws on each side (see figure 26 on page 56).

I Note that there are two M3 screws and two UNC screws on each side (see figure 27 on page 57).

V CAUTION!

Keep the dummy covers for future use. If you remove the HDD extension box again and do not replace it with a new one, the dummy covers must be reinstalled to comply with EMC regulations and to satisfy cooling requirements and fire protection measures.
