packaging instructions, and use any packaging materials for shipping that are
supplied to you.
Installing a 2.5-inch hot-swap hard disk drive
Use this information to install a 2.5-inch hot-swap hard disk drive.
Before you begin
The following notes describe the types of hard disk drives that the server supports
and other information that you must consider when you install a hard disk drive:
v
Depending on the model, the server supports up to eight or up to thirty-two
2.5-inch SAS/SATA hot-swap hard disk drives in the hot-swap bays.
Note: When using ServeRAID adapter M1015 to support more than sixteen
2.5-inch hard disk drives, the maximum number of RAID supported drives is 16.
All the other drives will remain JBOD (the drives are presented to the operating
system without a RAID configuration).
v
For a list of supported optional devices for the server, see http://
www.ibm.com/systems/info/x86servers/serverproven/compat/us.
v
Inspect the drive and drive bay for signs of damage.
v
Make sure that the drive is correctly installed in the drive bay.
v
See the documentation for the ServeRAID adapter for instructions for installing
a hard disk drive.
v All hot-swap drives in the server must have the same throughput speed rating;
using drives with different speed ratings might cause all drives to operate at the
speed of the slowest drive.
v
You do not have to turn off the server to install hot-swap drives in the hot-swap
drive bays. However, you must turn off the server when you perform any steps
that involve installing or removing cables.
