Notes:
1. After you install the hard disk drive, check the disk drive status LEDs to verify that the hard
disk drive is operating correctly. If the yellow hard disk drive status LED 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.
2. If the server is configured for RAID operation through an optional ServeRAID adapter, you
might have to reconfigure your disk arrays after you install hard disk drives. See the ServeRAID
documentation on the
ServeRAID Support CD for additional information about RAID operation
and complete instructions for using ServeRAID manager.
Step 7. Close the bezel (see “Installing the bezel” on page 186).
Step 8. Lock the left-side cover.
