Replacing the optional boot drive

An optional IDE hard drive can be shipped with the server. This drive is

mounted at the bottom of the drive stack accessible from the front of the

chassis.

To replace the optional boot drive:

1Turn off the system and disconnect the power cord and all other external

peripheral devices.

2Open the case. (See “Opening the case” on page 23 and “Preventing static

electricity discharge” on page 22.)

3Locate the 3.5-inch hard drive at the bottom of the drive stack.

4Remove the power and data cables from the hard drive.

5Grip the mounting rails firmly with thumb and index finger and pull

the drive carefully straight out of the drive stack.

6Remove the mounting rails from the hard drive.

7Place the old drive in an antistatic bag or container, then place the new

hard drive on a static-free surface with the top up and the connectors

facing you.
