a. Remove the blue snap-on slide rails from inside the filler panel.
b. Clip the slide rails onto the sides of the drive.
c. Store the filler panel for later use.
d. Align the slide rails on the drive with the guide rails in the bay; then, slide
the drive into the bay until it snaps into place.
8. Replace the one-drop SCSI signal cable in your server with a two-drop SCSI
signal cable, connecting the additional connector on the two-drop SCSI signal
cable to the rear of the removable-media drive.
9. Connect a power cable to the back of the drive. A three-drop power cable for
removable-media drives comes installed in your server. It is attached to the
standard CD-ROM drive. The connectors are keyed and can be inserted only
one way.
10. If you have other options to install or remove, do so now; otherwise, go to
“Completing the installation” on page 95.
