Replacing a Hard Disk Drive (Drive Cage Mounted)

NOTE

If the hard disk drive (HDD) you are planning to install already has a mounting tray

 

attached, you must remove it before you can install the drive into the drive cage.

 

 

1.Set the jumper on the back of the drive to “CS” (Cable Select). Refer to the hard disk drive documentation for detailed instructions.

2.Align and screw the rails to the new drive.

Use the shoulder screws located above the drive cage.

3.Slide the HDD into the drive cage opening.

Figure 7-7. Attaching the Rails

4.Connect the power and data cables to the disk drive.

For the IDE model, use the two connectors on the primary cable (IDE-1) to connect the IDE drives. The secondary cable (IDE-2) is intended for the IDE CD-ROM and an optional IDE device (shelf 3) or third drive (shelf 4).

For the SCSI model, use the SCSI cable, which has 5 connectors and a termination on the end of the cable. Typically, the SCSI cable is already folded, allowing you to use the available connectors on the SCSI cable nearest the drive cage.

5.Replace the left side cover.

6.Replace the external cables and power cord.

7.Power on the Server as described in Chapter 1, “Controls and Indicators.”

8.Verify the new configuration by checking the HP Summary screen. To access the HP Summary Screen, press F8, and then press Esc when the HP logo appears during startup.

DIMMs

NOTE

Use only memory modules provided for your HP Server model. Install only 128 MB,

 

256 MB, or 512 MB unbuffered ECC SDRAM modules. To ensure that you have the

 

correct DIMMS, refer to HP Order Assistant at http://www.hp.com

 

 

Removing DIMMs

Use this procedure to upgrade DIMMs or replace a defective DIMM.

1.If the Server is operating, power down the Server.

Refer to Chapter 1, “Controls and Indicators” for instructions.
