Chapter 3

Installing and Configuring

7.Slide the drive into the lower cage opening with the data and power connectors facing out of the drive cage. See Figure 3-8.

Figure 3-8. Drive Cage Mounting

8.Attach the data connectors to the drives.

Assuming that you want to boot from the original hard drive, attached the end connector (marked DRIVE 0) to this drive and the other connectors to the remaining drive(s). If mounting a SCSI hard drive, connect the SCSI cable to both drives.

9.Connect the power cable to the rear of the hard drive.

10.Replace the left side cover and external cables.

11.Replace the power cord and restore power to the Server.

12.Verify the new configuration by checking the HP Summary screen. To access the HP Summary Screen, press F2 then Esc when the HP logo appears during startup.

The BIOS and SCSISelect utilities automatically detect the new hard drives (IDE or SCSI) but you should check the BIOS and SCSISelect settings and make any necessary changes.

Installing a Third Hard Disk Drive (Tray Mounted)

The first and second hard disk drives (IDE or SCSI) are mounted in the drive cage; the third hard drive must be mounted in the fourth drive tray. The secondary IDE cable, which is connected to the IDE CD-ROM in the second drive tray, has an available connector that may be used for an IDE device in either the third or fourth tray.

1.If the Server is already installed and operating, power down the Server. Refer to Chapter 1, “Controls and Indicators.”

2.Disconnect the power cables and any external cables connected to the Server. If necessary, label each one to expedite re-assembly.

3.Remove the side cover and the upper front bezel.

Refer to “Opening and Closing the HP Server” earlier in this chapter.

4.Press in on both tab latches to release the fourth drive tray, and then pull it out. See Figure 3-9.

5.Remove the hard disk drive from its protective bag, and check, or set, the following items:

a.Check for bent pins on any of the connectors and carefully straighten any bent pins.

b.If mounting a third SCSI hard drive, ensure that it is not terminated and set the SCSI ID jumper for address = ID 2.

Refer to the documentation provided with the hard drive.
