Attention: To avoid damage to the hard disk drive connectors, make sure that the cover is in place and fully closed whenever you install or remove a hard disk drive.

1.Read the safety information that begins on page v and “Installation guidelines” on page 11.

2.Make sure that the server cover is in place and fully closed.

3.Remove the filler panel 3 from the bay. Store it in a safe place for possible future use.

Attention: To maintain proper system cooling, do not operate the server for more than 10 minutes without either a drive or filler panel installed in each bay.

4.Open the drive tray handle 2.

5.Gently push the drive assembly 1into the bay until the drive stops.

6.Close the drive tray handle.

7.Check the hard disk drive status LED to make sure that the hard disk drive is operating correctly. If the amber hard disk drive status LED for a drive is lit continuously, that drive is faulty and must be replaced. If the green hard disk drive activity LED is flashing, the drive is being accessed.

If you have other devices to install, do so now. Otherwise, go to “Completing the installation” on page 24.

Installing an adapter

The following notes describe the types of adapters that the server supports and other information that you must consider when you install an adapter:

vLocate the documentation that comes with the adapter and follow those instructions in addition to the instructions in this section. If you have to change switch settings or jumper settings on the adapter, follow the instructions that come with the adapter.

vThe adapter slots are on the riser-card assembly. You must first remove the riser-card assembly to access the adapter slots.

vThe two PCI Express slots on the riser-card assembly support PCI Express x8 1.0a adapters.

vYou can install one full-height three-quarter-length adapter in expansion slot 1 and one low-profile half-length adapter in expansion slot 2.

Note: When the optional Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine is installed in the server, you can install only a half-length adapter in expansion slot 1.

vIf you have installed an optional PCI-X riser-card assembly in the server, you can install a full-height, three-quarter-length PCI-X 64/133 MHz adapter in the PCI-X slot on the riser-card assembly.

Note: When the optional Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine is installed in the server, you can install only a half-length adapter in the PCI-X slot.

vThe optional Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine can be installed only in the dedicated connector on the system board (see “System-boardoptional-device

connectors” on page 9 for the location of the connector). To install the Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine, see “Installing an IBM® Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine” on page 22.

vThe server uses a rotational interrupt technique to configure PCI Express adapters so that you can install PCI Express adapters that do not support sharing of interrupts.
