Installing internal drives
If you add different types of drives, the system can read multiple types of media
and store more data. Several types of drives are available, such as:
v
Diskette
v
Hard disk
v
CD-ROM
v
DVD-ROM
v
Tape
Note: The server supports external tape drives; however, the server does not
support internal tape drives.
The server contains hardware that enables you to replace a failed hard disk drive
without turning off the server. Therefore, you have the advantage of continuing to
operate the system while a hard disk drive is removed or installed. These drives are
known as hot-swap drives.
Each hot-swap drive bay has two indicator lights on the front of the server (see
“Start the server” on page 8). If the amber hard-disk status light for a drive is lit
continuously, that individual drive is faulty and requires replacement. When the
hard-disk status light indicates a drive fault, you can replace a hot-swap drive
without turning off the server.
Each hot-swap drive that you plan to install must be mounted in a hot-swap-drive
tray. The drive must have a single connector attachment (SCA) connector.
Hot-swap-drive trays come with hot-swap drives.
Internal drive bays
Internal drives are installed in bays. The server supports up to a maximum of six
1-inch (26 mm) slim high, 3.5 inch, hot-swap hard disk drives when the media bay
option is installed.

one 3.5-inch, 1.44 MB diskette drive.
v The CD-ROM drive bay (bottom left front) supports 5.25-inch, half-high,
removable-media drives. However, you cannot install additional removable-media
drives in the server.
