Note: You can install a third and fourth SATA drive if you install an optional
ServeRAID 7t S-ATA controller in the server. The optional ServeRAID 7t
S-ATA controller comes with two cables that you can use to cable the third
and fourth SATA drives. In addition, if you install the optional ServeRAID
7t S-ATA controller to add a third and fourth drive, all four SATA drives
must then be connected to the ServeRAID 7t S-ATA controller instead of
the system board. See the optional ServeRAID 7t S-ATA controller
documentation for cabling instructions.

Install simple-swap SATA hard disk drives in this sequence: bay 7, bay 6, bay 5,
and bay 4.
v Bays 5, 6, and 7 are simple-swap bays and do not require cabling. Bay 4 is a
non-hot-swap drive bay and requires cabling as you would normally cable a
non-hot-swap drive. See “Installing a drive in bay 2 or 4” on page 32 for
information about how to install a hard disk drive in bay 4.
Complete the following steps to install a simple-swap hard disk drive:
1. Read “Installation guidelines” on page 23 and the safety information beginning
at “Safety information” on page 107.
2. Turn off the server and peripheral devices and disconnect all power cords and
external cables.
3. Make sure that the side cover is unlocked in order to allow the door hatch to
open. You do not have to remove the side cover.
4. Grasp the recessed area on the door hatch and rotate the door hatch outward
until it disengages from the server.
