Diskette Drive Bay: This dedicated bay contains a 3.5-inch,

1.44MB1 diskette drive, which comes standard in all PC Server 704 models. This drive uses 1 MB and 2 MB diskettes. For optimum use, format 1 MB diskettes to 720 KB2 and format

2 MB diskettes to 1.44 MB.

Removable-Media Drive Bays: Your PC Server 704 has four drive bays for removable-media devices such as tape-backup drives, compact disc read-only memory (CD-ROM) drives, optical drives, or additional diskette drives. One of these drive bays contains a SCSI-2 CD-ROM drive, which comes standard in all PC Server 704 models. For information about inserting CDs and using the CD-ROM drive, see “Using the CD-ROM Drive” on page 21.

Hot-Swap Bays: The hot-swap drive bays support up to 12 SCSI hard disk drives. The number of preinstalled drives and their capacities vary by model. The hot-swap feature enables you to remove and replace hard disk drives without turning off the server.

1 MB equals approximately 1 000 000 bytes; total user-accessible capacity may vary depending on operating environment.

2KB equals approximately 1 000 bytes; total user-accessible capacity may vary depending on operating environment.
