Power and signal cables for internal drives

The server uses cables to connect SATA attached, simple-swap SATA, hot-swap SATA and hot-swap SAS devices to the power supply and to the system board. (See “System-board internal connectors” on page 28 for the location of system-board connectors.) Review the following information before connecting power and signal cables to internal drives:

vThe drives that are preinstalled in the server come with power and signal cables attached. If you replace any drives, remember which cable is attached to which drive.

vWhen you route a cable, make sure that it does not block the airflow to the rear of the drives or over the microprocessor or DIMMs.

The following cables are provided:

vThe DVD drive is attached to an ATA signal cable. The blue connector is attached to the system board. The connector on the other end is attached to the SATA device. The middle connector attaches to an optional optical device or tape drive. A separate power cable provides power to the device from the system board.

vSimple-swap SATA models: The simple-swap SATA models come with a combination signal/power cable that connects to the connector on the system board and the simple-swap SATA backplate to provide signal and power to the simple-swap SATA drives. Connect the power connector on the split end of the cable to the Hard disk drive backplane power connector on the system board and connect the signal connector on the split end of the cable to the Simple-swap SATA signal cable connector on the system board. On the other end of the combination signal/power cable, connect a signal connector to each drive bay signal connector on the simple-swap SATA backplate and connect a power connector to each drive bay power connector on the simple-swap SATA backplate.
