Installing the Drive Cage
1
Ensure that the 1 x 2 backplane is secured to the back of the drive cage with four
screws.
2
Insert the drive cage into the peripheral drive bay until two of the holes on the top and
two holes on the bottom of the drive cage align with holes in the peripheral bay. See
Figure 1-2 for the orientation on a tower system.
NOTE:
To install the drive cage into the peripheral bay of a
rack system, turn the cage
180° so that the 1 x 2 backplane power connector is near the bottom of the peripheral bay.
NOTE:
The drive cage can be inserted into the peripheral bay from the front or the back.
