CD-ROM and Floppy Drive Installation
The top cover of the chassis must be opened to gain full access to the CD-
ROM and floppy drive bays. The 6023P-8R/6023P-8 accomodates only slim-
line 5 1/4" CD-ROM drives. Side mounting brakets are typically needed to
mount a slim-line CD-ROM drive in the 6023P-8R/6023P-8 server.
First, release the retention screws that secure the server unit to the rack.
Grasp the two handles on either side and pull the unit straight out until it
locks (you will hear a "click"). Next, depress the two buttons on the top of
the chassis to release the top cover and at the same time, push the cover
away from you until it stops. You can then lift the top cover from the
chassis to gain full access to the inside of the server. You must power
down the system before installing or removing floppy or IDE components.
Drives mount on rails and should "click" into place to be correctly and fully
installed in their bays.
• The floppy disk drive cable has seven twisted wires.
• A color mark on a cable typically designates the location of pin 1.
• A single floppy disk drive ribbon cable has 34 wires and two connectors to
provide for two floppy disk drives. The connector with twisted wires always
connects to drive A, and the connector that does not have twisted wires
always connects to drive B.
2. Installing/removing 5 1/4" drive bay component
A single 5 1/4" IDE drive bay is located in the front of the chassis, making
it easily accessible for installation and removal. This component is not
hot-swappable, meaning system power must be turned off before
installing and/or removing them. To remove the drive carrier, first power
down the system and then remove the top cover of the chassis. Un-
screw the retention screw at the top center of the drive, then push the
drive carrier out from the back until you can grasp and pull it out through
the front of the chassis. Attach the component to the carrier if installing.
Then reverse the drive carrier removal procedure to install the drive,
making sure you screw in the retention screw. Replace the top cover
when finished.
