6Install the new drive in the carrier using the four screws you removed in Step 5.

7Align the drive rails with the slots at the sides of the drive bay. Leave the retention lever in the open position.

8Push the drive all of the way into the drive bay until the retention lever starts to close because of contact with the front of the chassis. Make sure the hooks on the side of the retention lever latch to the side of the drive bay and firmly close the lever.

9Run any necessary utilities to setup the new drive. See the utility software documentation for details.

Adding a hot-plug drive

The hot-plug drives are located at right side of the front panel as you face the system. The hot-plug bay supports as many as four 1-inch high 3.5-inch SCSI hard drives.

The hot-plug drives are assigned SCSI ID numbers by the hot-plug backplane with the drive in the upper left corner of the hot-plug bay assigned SCSI ID 0. The backplane assigns SCSI IDs to the other drives in order up to SCSI ID 3 in the lower right corner of the hot-plug bay. See “Hot-plug backplane” on page 8 for the locations of the drives by SCSI ID number.

Important Gateway tests and verifies the operation and compatibility of the drives we sell. Additional or replacement drives must conform to Gateway standards, especially in a RAID or mission-critical environment.

Install the first drive in the upper left corner, then install drives in increasing order by SCSI ID number thereafter.
