Chapter 6: Advanced Chassis Setup

DVD-ROM Drive Installation

The top cover of the chassis must be opened to gain full access to the DVD-ROM drive bay. The 6016T-6RFT+/6016T-6RF+ accomodates only slim DVD-ROM drives. Side mounting brackets are needed to mount a slim DVD-ROM drive in the 6016T- 6RFT+/6016T-6RF+ server. You must power down the system before installing or removing a DVD-ROM drive.

Removing the Chassis Cover

1.Grasp the two handles on either side and pull the unit straight out until it locks (you will hear a "click").

2.Depress the two buttons on the top of the chassis to release the top cover and at the same time, push the cover away from you until it stops. You can then lift the top cover from the chassis to gain full access to the inside of the server.

Removing/Installing a Drive

1.With the chassis cover removed, unplug the power and data cables from the drive you want to remove.

2.Locate the locking tab at the rear of the drive. It will be on the left side of the drive when viewed from the front of the chassis.

3.Pull the tab away from the drive and push the drive unit out the front of the chassis.

4.Add a new drive by following this procedure in reverse order. You may hear a faint *click* of the locking tab when the drive is fully inserted.

5.Remember to reconnect the data and power cables to the drive before replac- ing the chassis cover and restoring power to the system.
