2-6 Checking the Drive Bay Setup
Next, you should check to make sure the peripheral drives and the SCSI
drives and SCA backplane have been properly installed and all connections
have been made.
1. Accessing the drive bays:
All drives can be accessed from the front of the server. For servicing
the CD-ROM, IDE hard drives and floppy drives, you will need to remove
the top/left chassis cover. The SCSI disk drives can be installed and
removed from the front of the chassis without removing any chassis
covers.
2. Installing components into the 5.25" drive bays:
To install components into the 5.25" drive bays, you must first remove the top/
left chassis cover as described in the previous section. Refer to Chapter 6 for
details.
3. Installing CD-ROM and floppy disk drives:
Refer to Chapter 6 if you need to reinstall a CD-ROM and/or floppy disk
drive to the system.
4. Check the SCSI disk drives:
Depending upon your system's configuration, your system may have one
or more drives already installed. If you need to install SCSI drives, please
refer to Chapter 6.
5. Check the airflow:
Airflow is provided by one 12-cm exhaust fan and three hot-swap 12-cm chas-
sis fans. The system component layout was carefully designed to promote
sufficient airflow through the 4U rackmount space. Also note that all power
and data cables have been routed in such a way that they do not block the
airflow generated by the fans. Keep this in mind when you reroute them after
working on the system.
