1. If you have not already done so, remove the front covers as described in
“Removing the Front Covers Only” on page 5-6
2. Each drive you plan to install in bank C, D, or E must have the hot-swap SCSI
disk drive carrier attached.
Note: SCSI disk drives carriers have a white plastic bezel around the status
lights of the carrier. SSA disk carriers have a black bezel.
Attention: Handle the disk drive with care as it is very fragile and can be easily
damaged if exposed to shock, electrostatic discharge, or rough handling.
3. It is recommended that you install the disk drive in the next unused position of
bank C, D, or E.
Attention: Attaching SCSI address jumpers on the drive rather than using the
automatic ID furnished by the backplane is not advised. Attaching jumpers can
cause service problems, multiple drives at the same address, or confusion
locating the correct drive.
a. Rotate the carrier latch to the open position.
b. Position the drive carrier assembly vertically, with the connector facing the
rear of the system.
