Intel SR1450 manual Installing and Removing a Hard Disk Drive

Hardware Installations and Upgrades

Installing and Removing a Hard Disk Drive

Up to three hard drives of one of the following types can be installed, depending on the hard drive installation option used in your server chassis and the drives supported by your server board.

ƒThree hot-swap SCSI drives if the SCSI backplane is installed.

ƒThree hot-swap SATA drives if the SATA backplane is installed.

✏NOTE

The Intel Server Chassis SR1450 does not support all hard drives. See “Additional Information and Software” for an Internet link to a list of supported hardware.

CAUTION

If you install less than three drives or devices, empty drive bays must be occupied by carriers with baffles to maintain proper system cooling.

To avoid possible damage to your chassis, DO NOT USE older style drive carriers received with other Intel server chassis.
