Installing or Replacing Parts and Accessories
replacing a hard drive
1. Attach rails to the hard drive (page 2-21).
NOTE:
Extra hard drive rails are attached to the inside of the AGP retainer arm (page 2-18).
2. Push inward on the drive until it no longer slides inward.
3. If you removed the AGP retainer arm to access stored rails, replace it, making sure that the
latches on the arm are inserted securely into the sockets on the rear edge of the system
chassis and the retainer clip is securely holding the AGP card in place. Lower the arm into
place and tighten the blue screw using your fingers.
4. Depress the blue latch holding the hard drive cage in the upright position, and lower the cage
until it snaps into place.
5. Reattach the hard drive power connection and IDE or SCSI cable.
NOTE:
The system has two IDE cables — one is marked “Hard Drives,” the other is marked
“Optical Devices.” Make sure you connect them properly. The black connector on each cable is
for the master device; the gray connector is for the slave device. Make sure the jumper on the
hard drive is set to cable select (CSEL), not to master (M) or slave (S). See the documentation
provided with your drive for help locating the jumper.
6.
SCSI Drives only:
Connect the SCSI Activity LED cable provided with the SCSI card to the
system board (A) and SCSI card (B).
Connect the SCSI LED Cable
NOTE
: The SCSI Activity LED is only active on systems purchased after March 2003.
7. Replace the system covers and cables.
8. Turn the system on, then execute the EFI shell
info
io
command to verify that the optical
drive has been properly installed. For more information on EFI, see Chapter 3.
