Installing and Removing the Backplane Board (Hot-
swap Hard Drive System Only)
The Intel
®
Server System SR1600UR with hot-swap drives (Product Code:
SR1600URHS) requires that you install a hot-swap backplane to make the system
operational. Two backplane options are supported:
•
Active SAS RAID Backplane, capable of supporting SAS hard drives
•
Passive SATA Backplane, capable of supporting SATA hard drives.
The steps for installing and replacing both the backplanes are nearly identical. Use the
following section for both backplane options. Where necessary, differences between the
two backplanes are noted.
Installing the Backplane Board
To install the backplane board, follow these steps:
1. Remove the PCI riser assembly. For instructions, see “Removing the PCI Riser
Assembly” on page 41 .
2. Remove the processor air duct. For instructions, see “Removing the Processor Air
Duct” on page 46 .
3. Lower the backplane board into the system and position the backplane board over
the six chassis standoffs (see letter “A” in Figure 69 ).
Note: Make sure that all the cables are seated over the backplane.
4. Press down uniformly until each standoff is inserted into the corresponding hole on
the backplane (see letter “B” in Figure 69 ).
5. Slide the backplane board in the direction shown (see letter “C” in Figure 69 ) to
lock it in place.
6. Secure the backplane with the thumbscrew (see letter “D” in Figure 69 ).
