Installing drives

Your server’s basic configuration includes one CD drive and one 3.5-inch diskette drive. Two additional 5.25-inch drive bays are also provided for more drives.

Your server can have up to eight SCSI hard drives in the hot-swap bay behind the front access door.

As you prepare to install drives, remember:

■Do not use the top 5.25-inch drive bay for drives which have electronic components exposed on the top. Drive mounting rails at the top of the bay may damage any exposed electronic components.

■Before you install a drive, see the drive’s documentation for information on configuring the drive, setting drive jumpers, and attaching cables.

■IDE hard drives can be configured as single, master, slave, or cable-select. IDE CD drives can be configured as master, slave, or cable-select.
