a. Make sure that the tray handle is open (that is, perpendicular to the drive).
b. Align the drive assembly with the guide rails in the bay.
c. Gently push the drive assembly into the bay until the drive stops.
d. Push the tray handle to the closed (locked) position.
e. Check the hard disk drive status LED to verify that the hard disk drive is
operating correctly.
If the amber hard disk drive status LED for a drive is lit continuously, that
drive is faulty and must be replaced. If the green hard disk drive activity LED
is flashing, the drive is being accessed.
Note: You might have to reconfigure the disk arrays after you install hard disk
drives. See the RAID documentation on the IBM ServeRAID Support CD for
information about RAID controllers.
If you have other optional devices to install or remove, do so now. Otherwise, go to
“Completing the installation” on page 81.
