DEVICE INSTALLATION OR REMOVAL PROCEDURE
Install or remove a component from the server in the following procedure.
Hard Disk Drive
The server has six device bay slots to install hard disks with the SCA2 interface (Ultra 320 SCSI) in
the disk bay of the front of the server.
IMPORTANT:
Do not use any hard disks that are not authorized by NEC. Installing
a third-party hard disk may cause a failure of the server as well as
the hard disk. Purchase hard disks of the following models:
– N8150-161F (18.1 GB, 10,000 rpm, Ultra 320)
– N8150-162F (36.3 GB, 10,000 rpm, Ultra 320)
– N8150-163F (73.2 GB, 10,000 rpm, Ultra 320)
– N8150-171F (146 GB, 10,000 rpm, Ultra 320)
– N8150-164F (18.1 GB, 15,000 rpm, Ultra 320)
– N8150-165F (36.3 GB, 15,000 rpm, Ultra 320)
– N8150-172F (73.2 GB, 15,000 rpm, Ultra 320)
To make array configuration, specify RAID0, RAID1, or RAID5 as
the RAID level.
Up to six hard disk drives can be installed in standard mode. If
using the flex bay, you can install up to seven hard disk drives.
All six slots may contain a hard disk approximately 25.4 mm (1 inch) high. The SCSI IDs of ID0
through ID5 are always assigned to hard disks as shown below.
The hard disk drive bays are connected to the SCSI connector on the mother board when the server
is shipped. To use the hard disk drives in a disk array configuration, run the SCSI BIOS utility (see
Chapter 4). If you have an optional RAID controller, install it to your server and reconnect the cable
from the connector on the mother board to the RAID controller connector. For the cable
reconnection, see "Disk Array Controller".
A dummy block is installed in the hard disk drive bays except the one with SCSI ID0 defined. The
purpose of a dummy block is to increase the cooling effect in the server. Install a dummy block in
slots not containing a hard disk drive.
SCSI ID0
SCSI ID1
SCSI ID5
SCSI ID4
SCSI ID3
SCSI ID2
