9-6 Upgrading Your Server

DEVICE INSTALLATION OR REMOVAL PROCEDURE

Install or remove a component from the server in the following procedure.

Hard Disk Drive

The server has five slots to install hard disks (Ultra 320 SCSI) in the 3.5-inch disk bay of the front of the server.

IMPORTANT:

„Do not use any hard disks that are not authorized by NEC. Installing a third-party hard disk may cause a failure of the server as well as the hard disk. Purchase hard disks of the following models:

–N8150-161F (18.1 GB, 10,000 rpm, Ultra 320)

–N8150-162F (36.3 GB, 10,000 rpm, Ultra 320)

–N8150-163F (73.2 GB, 10,000 rpm, Ultra 320)

–N8150-171F (146 GB, 10,000 rpm, Ultra 320)

–N8150-164F (18.1 GB, 15,000 rpm, Ultra 320)

–N8150-165F (36.3 GB, 15,000 rpm, Ultra 320)

–N8150-172F (73.2 GB, 15,000 rpm, Ultra 320)

„To make array configuration, refer to the manual that comes with the optional disk array controller board.

All five slots may contain a hard disk approximately 25.4 mm (1 inch) high. The SCSI IDs of ID0 through ID4 are always assigned to hard disks as shown below.

SCSI ID4	SCSI ID0
	SCSI ID3 SCSI ID2SCSI ID1

The 3.5-in. disk bay is connected to the Ultra 320 SCSI (A) connector on the baseboard when the server is shipped.

To use the hard disk drives in a disk array configuration, reconnect the cable from the connector on the baseboard to the disk array controller connector. In the disk array configuration, use the same model of hard disk drives.

A dummy tray or dummy sponge is installed in the 3.5-inch disk bay. The purpose of a dummy tray or dummy sponge is to increase the cooling effect in the server. Install a dummy tray or dummy sponge block in slots not containing a hard disk drive.

IMPORTANT: Use the appropriate dummy tray or dummy sponge block for this server.
