Next, you should check to make sure the peripheral drives and the SAS/SATA drives
have been properly installed and all connections have been made.
Checking the Drives
1. All drives are accessable from the front of the server. A hard drive can be
installed and removed from the front of the chassis without removing the top
chassis cover.
2. Depending upon your system's confi guration, your system may have one or
more drives already installed. If you need to install hard drives, please refer to
Chapter 6.
Checking the Airfl ow
1. Make sure there are no objects obstructing the airfl ow in and out of the
chassis. In addition, if you are using a front bezel, make sure the bezel's fi lter
is replaced periodically.
2. Except for brief periods while swapping hard drives, do not operate the server
without drives or the drive carriers in the drive bays. Use only recommended
server parts.
3. Make sure no wires or foreign objects obstruct airfl ow through the chassis.
Pull all excess cabling out of the airfl ow path or use shorter cables.
4. The control panel LEDs inform you of system status. See “Chapter 3: System
Interface” for details on the LEDs and the control panel buttons.
Providing Power
1. Plug the power cord(s) from the power supply unit(s) into a high-quality
power strip that offers protection from electrical noise and power surges. It is
recommended that you use an uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
2. Depress the power on button on the front of the chassis.
