SUPER MICRO Computer 6014L-M manual CD-ROM Drive Installation

Chapter 6: Advanced Chassis Setup

The hard drive that sits below the CD-ROM is now accessible. Remove the four screws from the bottom of the chassis that secure the drive, then lift the hard drive out. To add a new SATA drive, install a drive into the tray with the printed circuit board side facing down and so that the mounting holes align with those in the tray. Secure the drive to the tray with the four screws through the bottom of the chassis. Replace the CD-ROM drive (including reconnecting the power and data cables) and fi nally the top cover when fi nished. See Figure 6-3.

CD-ROM Drive Installation

The top cover of the chassis must be opened to gain full access to the CD-ROM drive bay. The CD-ROM must have a "slim" profi le to fi t into the 6014L-M. If you cannot remove the top cover with the system remaining in the rack, follow the procedure below.

First, shutdown the system and disconnect all cables from the back of the server chassis. Make sure the system is supported from underneath then remove the front bracket screws that secure the unit to the rack. Carefully lift the server out of the rack.

Open the cover by following the procedure described on page 6-7. You must power down the system before installing or removing CD-ROM or Serial ATA drives. Remove the two screws that secure the CD-ROM drive to the chassis (one screw comes in from the side of the chassis and the other screws straight down into a standoff) then lift the drive out of the chassis. See Figure 6-3.

Note: A red mark on a wire typically designates the location of pin 1.
