Removing the Front Bezel
If your system has a front bezel (optional) attached to the chassis, you must first
remove it to gain access to the drive bays. To remove the bezel, first unlock the front
of the chassis then press the release knob (see Figure 6-3). Carefully remove the
bezel with both hands. A filter located within the bezel can be removed for replace -
ment/cleaning. It is recommended that you keep a maintenance log of filter cleaning/
replacement, since its condition will affect the airflow throughout the whole system.
Accessing the Drive Bays
SATA Drives: Because of their hotswap capability, you do not need to access the
inside of the chassis or power down the system to install or replace SATA drives.
Proceed to the next section for instructions.
DVD-ROM Drive: For installing/removing a DVD-ROM drive, you will need to gain
access to the inside of the 6018R-TDTP/TDTPR by removing the top cover of the
chassis. Proceed to the "DVD-ROM Drive Installation" section later in this chapter
for instructions.
Note: Only a "slim" DVD-ROM drive will fit into the 6018R-TDTP/TDTPR.
